When most people think of Neon Indian, a few things probably come to mind — a nostalgia-filled sound, chillwave, missed opportunities to drop acid with a friend, bizarre infomercials and so on. 
Fitting, then, that this week’s top poster combines a few of those ideas.

Delicious Design League, a Chicago-based design firm that’s worked with clients such as Nike and Western Union in the past, was tapped by the folks at the Granada Theater for this design.

Says Granada promotions manager Gavin Mulloy: “[It’s their] maiden voyage working with Granada. Loved their work and contacted them. Hope to do more with them.”

Easy to see why. They do a nice job with it, adding a little bit of psychedelia to a found image of children running — perhaps into a pool during a deabeat summer? Maybe.

Regardless, it’s a party for your eyes. The splashes of color, though seemingly random in their placement, given the poster design an almost burnt-out feel, adding to the overall nostalgia at play. And, of course, surrounding all the trippy stuff, all the pertinent show info is included.

A nice visual, for sure.
