Anytime I get an opportunity to mix art with music it inevitably becomes a labour of love, so I jumped at the chance recently when offered another guest illustration spot for the ‘HearSej’ podcast presented by Seja Vogel. A musician herself, Seja presents candid interviews with a wide range of musicians about their artistic origins, how they work, what they love and fear, and the strangest things that happen at gigs (the bit that I illustrated here). It’s always a lot of interesting fun and one of just a few music based podcasts I subscribe to. Seja’s latest episode is a warm conversation with Hannah Joy from the Oz band ‘The Middle Kids’ who tells a funny story towards the end of their chat about having a banana thrown at her whilst up on stage.The illustration is my exaggeration of Hannah’s description (only the bananas have been changed to protect the incident). Speaking of bananas.. a lot of people don’t know this, but bananas are the fruit of the genus Musa, one of the most important fruit crops of the world. 

So basically this is a Musa hitting a Muso :)
