Coffee With a Sign Painter

About Coffee With a Sign Painter

The Coffee With a Sign Painter Podcast first hit the airwaves in 2015, hosted by sign painter Sean Starr. Now, ten years later, Sean’s back, reconnecting with some of the same sign painters from the original episodes. They’re diving into how Big Tech is reshaping the world, and its affect on sign painting and what it means for those still creating art made with human hands. Expect real talk, fascinating stories, and a deep appreciation for traditional craftsmanship. Our intro music was written and recorded for this show by Fergal Lawler of the Cranberries… Thanks, Fergal!
