Greg & Fake are a collaborative artist team working in Chicago since 2009. Most of their work is illustrated
and painted on double corrugated cardboard, creating a crafted feel and unique undertone. Fake lays down
pencils, Greg inks, Fake adds base colors, and then the work goes back to Greg for highlights. Greg & Fake
have recently branched out into sequential art, illustrating the MAD Magazine style “AMERICAN NATURE”,
which can currently be seen in the backups of Image Comics’ “Hoax Hunters”. Greg & Fake’s work can be
found online at www.gregandfake.blogspot.com
Post Honeymoon’s roots go back to a summer night in 2001, when drummer Nick Kraska met keyboardist Rachel Shindelman (both ex-Bang! Bang!, New Black) and brought her to a show at the Empty Bottle. It took them three years to start playing together and another three to get married, go on their first vacation
and start their own outfit, the aptly named Post Honeymoon. Post Honeymoon strips bare and slows down the pop songs Kraska and Shindelman perfected while playing in other outfits. What’s left are the kind of songs you dream up when you think nobody else is listening. Think Siouxsie Sioux meets the Motels, meets
Love & Rockets (without the guitars). www.posthoneymoon.com
