The creative overlap between music and photography seemingly knows no bounds. Check out some fab bands who’ve used Hipstamatic in rad ways:

Wilco Wilco is badass to the extreme, and so was their limited edition cassette. (Yes, you read that right. Cassette.) Fans used The Whole Love song titles as inspiration for Hipstamatic photos, and the band chose five faves to grace the cassettes’ covers.

Dead ellington Boston punk-rockers Dead Ellington released a limited edition 7” that was made for fans, by fans. The project was funded on Kickstarter, and featured glorious Hipstamatic prints (taken by you!) in each sleeve. Props to our pals at Color Services for the sick packaging.

Adrianna krikl LA instrumentalist Adrianna Krikl made her own truly beautiful CD packages—she sketched, stamped, spray painted, and Hipsta-printed her way to heartfelt pieces of art. Check out her video of the process here.

Walk off the earth Walk Off the Earth has an out-of-thebox approach to music videos, and their famous Gotye cover is the tip of the iceberg. Peep their Hipstamatic stop-motion film for original tune “Money Tree,” and try not to dance. I dare you.
