Autorenporträt

Brian Walsby first reared his big head in the early 1980s as a prolific contributor (via letter writing) to the harcore/punk scene's vibrant literary underground. From 1984 through 1986, Brian drew numerous cartoons and drawings for various zines around at the time like MAXIMUM ROCK AND ROLL, FLIPSIDE, INK DISEASE, XXX, SUBURBAN VOICE, SIXTY MILES NORTH, and GUILLOTINE. He also drew album artwork for bands like SEVEN SECONDS, PSYCHO, SCARED STRAIGHT, THE MELVINS, SKEEZICKS, and the Oxnard California compilation album NARDCORE. Brian has played drums for many bands including SCARED STRAIGHT, WWAX (with Mac from SUPERCHUNK and Merge Records), SNAKE NATION (with Mike Dean and Woody Weatherman of CORROSION OF CONFORMITY), PATTY DUKE SYNDROME (with controversial songwriter Ryan Adams), SHINY BEAST, and a stint in POLVO. He returned to art in the 1990s, contributing artwork, interviews, and cartoons to a new generation of magazines like THE HIT LIST, CHUNKLET, LEFT OF THE DIAL, RAZORCAKE and DECIBEL. Brian's graphic novel series, MANCHILD, spans 6 volumes and collects many of his stories about early punker experiences and growing up a nerd. These largely autobiographical cartoons cover topics like touring with the Descendents, Ronald Reagan, coffee shops, high school traumas, bowling, hair-metal, SST, the Melvins, straight-edge, and punk punk rock. Brian continues to create freelance artwork in North Carolina, where he lives with his partner and two children. More information is available at www.brianwalsby.net
