OLIVER DEANS

Oliver Deans is a musician and graphic designer residing in a leafy corner of Leeds, West Yorkshire. Musically, he takes influence from the dusty, harmonious guitar music of 60s and 70s America, strumming and singing lead vocals in The Big Wheel as well as crafting finger-picked ditties under The Walker.

Away from the music, you’ll most likely find him thumbing through an old book in search of long-forgotten typography and archived ephemera. With a passion for the solid, old and unmatchable simplicity of early 20th Century design, Oliver’s graphic design work focusses on the beauty of letters and colour.
