John Seabury, the mastermind behind the iconic Pyno Man, is a legendary figure in the rock poster world. Emerging from the post-hippie underground scene in Berkeley, Seabury’s meticulous and surreal line work first gained attention with the late ’70s pre-punk band Psycotic Pineapple, where he played bass and designed their memorable flyers.
Seabury’s art is known for its psychotic obsessiveness and intricate detail, pushing the boundaries of rock poster art with a blend of fine art commissions, illustrations, and custom designs. His posters for bands like Moonalice, George Clinton, and The Damned have become collector’s items, celebrated for their unique visual storytelling.
Living and working in the Bay Area, Seabury continues to influence and inspire the rock art scene with his dynamic and evocative creations.
