Harri Larkin - Context Research

I've been approached by a friend of a friend asking me to design a logo for their band, Harri Larkin which is based in Bristol.

Having spoken to the band about the type of music the band produces, she described it as "alternative indie that's influenced by Paramore, No Doubt, and the Red Hot Chilli Peppers". The bands they referenced as having nice logos were The Ramones and The Sex Pistols, and they like the scratch look of The Libertines and My Chemical Romance, all of which are shown below.








































The aesthetic to go for seems to be some sort of scratchy or messy unorganised text with a black and white illustration, the shape should either be circular or horizontally rectangular, doing this things will allow the logo to carry over the connotations of these bands to Harri Larkin, making the logo successful in terms of communicating what type of music the band play, which is important for a new band.
