Episode 214: Cass Jones
Your assignment for the week -- class -- is to find someone cooler than Cass Jones.
And once I've graded all of your papers, I'm pleased to share with you that I will be modifying all of your Fs to As, because -- that's right -- it's an impossible ask.
We're putting up something in the form of Episode No. 214, and I couldn't be happier to share that @cassjooones on Instagram is my guest, and what a hoot I had chatting with her.
Cass can also be found at cassjonescreative.com, and -- of greater importance, perhaps -- motelvenus.studio, come July 15th of this summer.
The Jones clan -- when they're not busy roasting one another -- would happily call Cass a sibling and a daughter, a solo camper and a dog lover. They might also call her hilarious and be right in doing so.
Cass and I talked design, illustration, brand strategy, her gig with The Pitch, and a bunch more. Included in said "more," was a short list of some of her favorite albums. Those were these:
Ice Cube's Lethal Injection (1993)
Destroy All Astromen! (1994), Man or Astro-man?
Dethklok's The Dethalbum (2007)
Keep your eyes peeled for the Motel Venus stuff; it's bound to be rad.
Many thanks to Cass and to all that support the progrum.
Note: Moonflower was not the Santana album was thinking of, I don't think. If Google's right, I think maybe it was Borboletta (1974).
