AC Entertainment, the people behind Bonaroo, Big Ears, Forecastle, and other popular music festivals approached Cornett while I was working there, looking for us to brand a new festival called Railbird. The fest is now held annually at the legendary Keeneland grounds in Lexington, KY and has been a huge success with their unique pairing of bluegrass, country, americana, folk, rock, and more. They also partnered with some of the biggest and best names in the whiskey and restaurant businesses for their “Sip & Savor” experience.
Under the creative direction of David Coomer at Cornett I designed the logotype, secondary marks, and many supporting brand assets alongside designer and illustrator Ken Grier. This work was used on everything from tickets and wristbands all the way up to massive 30+ foot stage banners and physical signage and ice sculptures.
