Designed for the band's Halloween Monster Mash Up concert at The Warfield in San Francisco, this piece captures the eerie energy of the event while maintaining Slater’s signature bold style. This print features a haunting depiction of a ghoulish vampire mummy leaning over a gravestone, where the band’s name is prominently displayed in dripping typography.

The metallic ink further enhances the visual appeal, creating a print that shimmers with texture and depth.

His work is known for its intricate details, layered textures, and surreal interpretations of cultural references. This piece is no exception, as it incorporates his signature approach to screen printing, with bold outlines and a highly stylized central figure. The artist’s use of metallic ink and Halloween-inspired color palettes gives this print a dimensionality that makes it stand out among traditional gig posters. The character’s green face and eerie white bandages contrast sharply against the darker tones, while the inclusion of snack cakes in the background adds a whimsical touch that keeps the piece from being purely sinister. The Connection Between Music and Visual Art Umphrey's McGee is a band known for their progressive rock and improvisational performances, making them an ideal subject for a visually striking print.

These prints often blur the lines between commercial design and fine art, making them highly sought after by collectors. Slater’s approach ensures that his work remains unique, drawing inspiration from the concert’s theme while incorporating his own artistic influences. A Highly Collectible Limited Edition Print With its artist proof designation, this screen print is a rare and highly collectible piece for both music and street pop art enthusiasts.
