Liverpool is known as the home of The Beatles, but how is it that Paramore is so closely connected to this English city? Come take a closer look at the work of Liverpool-based tattoo artist, Rachel Baldwin and you’ll see why.
Co-owner of Bold as Brass Tattoo Co., Rachel Baldwin shows prowess when it comes to delivering unique, custom tattoos for her clients in the realms of animals, food, and pop culture characters.
Producing such an eclectic mix of tattoos based off a single album from the same band is no easy feat, but it’s something which Rachel accomplishes time and time again with her Paramore tattoos.
Paramore’s 2017 musical release, After Laughter is the basis of the majority of the tattoos featured below, and when combined with Rachel’s signature style, the pieces stay true to the band’s change in artistic direction – both visually and lyrically.
When you see a tattoo you like, remember that tattoo artists (reputable ones, at least) are able to bring your ideas to life without the copying the work of another tattooer. A tattoo from Rachel Baldwin is a guarantee of a solid, bold-lined, colourful piece which she, and nobody else, has ever tattooed.
I can’t wait to see how Paramore’s new album This Is Why will influence Rachel’s future flash, and how she brings new ideas from concept to completion for her clients.
Give your favourite Paramore album a listen while poring over these tattoos by Rachel Baldwin.
