We are pleased to announce that ‘Sweet Spirit’ (taken from The Spirit EP) is the featured music in a series of films celebrating the 80th Birthday of Sir Peter Blake (Pop Artist) and the creation of a new work of art sponsored by Macallan.
The definitive film about the collaboration between The Macallan Single Malt whisky and the godfather of pop art Sir Peter Blake to celebrate his 80th birthday on 25th June 2012. It shows the creation of the box by a team of six specialists in their field (Sir Peter Blake alongside David Holmes [creative director], Hugh Bredin [writer], Prof Phil Cleaver {graphic designer], Stewart Newman [art director] and Phil Lardner [cabinet maker]) who have come together to create a piece of art that represents eight decades of The Macallan and eight decades of Sir Peter Blake. 250 of the handmade boxes are available wordwide, signed by Sir Peter himself.
Sir Peter Blake and Stewart Newman talk about the background to designing the labels for each of the eight whiskies and their choice of artefacts to represent each decade in the collaboration between The Macallan Single Malt whisky and the godfather of pop art Sir Peter Blake to celebrate his 80th birthday on 25th June 2012. 250 of the handmade boxes are available wordwide, signed by Sir Peter himself.
The Macallan and Sir Peter Blake unique art piece can be viewed on The Macallan Website.
‘Sweet Spirit’, the lead track on ‘The Spirit EP’, is now available on CD from Amazon Records Website or digitally from iTunes.
