Mike King Drops a Line

Hey everybody look who was kind enough to drop us a line.


The one and only Mike King of Crash Design.


If you Wiki search him you will get "Michael King is the founder of Crash Design America, a graphic design company in Portland, Oregon, USA. King has been working as a graphic designer in Portland for more than 25 years".


Not much huh, but in truth all it really needs to say is " Mike King is RAD" followed by numerous exclamation marks. !!!!!!!!


So anyway being the nosey pricks we are and wanting to know a little more about the man who has forever been setting his creative genius to work promoting many musical heavy weights such as Arcade Fire, Foo Fighters, the National, Interpol & the Decemberists. 
We sent him a little letter.
