Celebrating great songs through art

Here at Indieprints we make high quality vintage style art prints. The designs were often inspired by great songs that emerged from the indie music scene, but also by older classics dating back to the ’60s and ’70s. Other sources of inspiration come from literature, film and television. Football and favourite places (London and North Wales) also feature strongly here. Our designs combine retro styles and typography with much-loved lyrics, poetry and terrace chants to produce striking wall art.

Featured Print of the Month

Pictures of You, The Cure

The genius of Robert Smith is here for all to see. Such a deeply moving song, it has the power to stop you in your tracks whenever you hear it. The lyrics slowly and deliberately unfolding to reveal the most devastating conclusion. The music, built around that gorgeous chiming riff, is beautiful, pensive, and with just the right amount of space to provide a perfect bed for Robert’s wistful, heartbroken words.

It featured on the brilliant Disintegration album in 1989 and was released as a single in 1990.

In addition, many of the song-based designs were inspired by older classics produced by iconic artists. And when we say ‘iconic’ we mean of course, the likes of David Bowie, Leonard Cohen, Tom Waits, Lou Reed, Velvet Underground, Van Morrison, Glen Campbell, The Kinks, Kraftwerk, Nick Drake, Kate Bush, Elton John and Queen.

High quality hand printed wall art

All designs are hand printed to order on high quality paper. We use 189 g/m² Archival Matte for the A4, A3 sizes, and 250 g/m² Japanese Washi Fine Art Paper for the A2 and A1 sizes. Extra care is taken in packaging the prints so that they arrive in perfect condition. We use robust cardboard tubes and extra strong cardboard wraps to ensure safe delivery. All prints come with a white border to allow easy framing, and framed versions are available for sizes A3 and A4. We use black wood effect MDF frames (20mm wide) with a clear Plexi (non glass) front and hardboard backing with both portrait and landscape hanging loops fitted.
