After rifling through pages of websites to find a link from the works of Sagmeister, I finally encountered the simple yet beautifully designed Jazz posters of Niklaus Troxler. Like Stefan Sagmeister, he also works with musicians.
Niklaus Troxler is an internationally renowned Swiss graphic designer, illustrator and concert organizer (organizer of the Willisau Jazz Festival)
These Jazz festival posters possess very bold, vibrant imagery but also depict what the posters are about.
Combining his typography with vector-like patterns. Some are illustrative. Others have especially created typefaces. Many are visual puns depicting images in letters. I just love the simplicity of the posters yet they still work and grab attention and they are all similar in form, most being a sort of 'A' size, typographically dominated over images and not ant use of photography.
From what I've found he has designed more than 50 different posters for these Jazz festival/shows.
