Florida-based illustrator and gig poster artist Nathaniel Deas, known as Bourbon Sunday, is a recognized for highly detailed, narrative-driven posters for bands including Goose, Dead & Company, 311, Billy Strings, and Umphrey’s McGee.

In this episode, Nathaniel breaks down how deep band research, venue context, and hidden references shape his work, from the Goose KettleHouse dragon poster to Dead & Company Red Rocks pieces and the Billy Strings Rocket City baseball card design. He discusses the creative turning point that reshaped his workflow, the role of poster shows in artistic growth, and why human-made art and lived experience still matter in a collector-driven culture.
