InSound 20
“Fly Flower” by The Small Stakes for the band Grizzly Bear
The Small Stakes is a design studio in Oakland, California that has produced artwork for a number of independent bands over the years.
Insound sells everything related to independent music.
Jason Munn, of the Small Stakes, and Insound have gotten together and produced art for twenty bands. The project is called Insound 20 and there is some very cool stuff in here for some very cool bands. As luck would have it my favorite is for a band of which I have very little knowledge.

Mr. Freeman is the owner of Blue Bottle Coffee out of Oakland, CA. He recently opened a new café — to add to the kiosk in Hayes Valley — off of Market street in San Francisco.
