Beat 13: Painted Rolls Royce

Beat 13, an artist and music collective, was created in Birmingham, UK back in ’99. The founders, Lucy Mclauchlan and Matt Watkins say it all started with drawing, music instruments came next, and then came the computers. This Rolls Roys, painted live for Kangol back in ’04 is a nice example of their work. Their current studio, or lab as they call it is situated in the Custard Factory, in Digbeth, UK. They say: Usually we’re busy working upstairs, but if you knock on the door you can come in and browse the gallery downstairs where limited edition art prints, apparel and promophernalia from many of our allies and inspirations are available for purchase. Check out their site for more work.
