Humans of XS Manchester

Brian Cannon

In the sixth episode of series two, Clint Boon speaks to graphic designer, art director, photographer and creator of some of the most iconic album covers ever, Brian Cannon.
Brian chats to Clint about growing up in Wigan, how the Punk revolution made him want to work in the music industry, designing album artwork whilst still at college and working with bands including The Verve, Suede and Super Furry Animals. He also describes how a chance encounter with a young Noel Gallagher in a lift, and a conversation about rare Adidas trainers, lead him to getting caught up in the Oasis buzz.
