rock musician Logos and Brands

Only rock artists who have built personal brands outside a group context are included in the “Rock Musician” section. David Bowie, Prince, Ozzy Osbourne, Bruce Springsteen, and Lenny Kravitz have turned their stage images and logos into trademarks that extend to concert tours, merchandise, perfumes, and autobiographies. A rock musician’s personal logo is inseparable from their visual alter ego, like the lightning bolt on Bowie’s face or the Love symbol instead of Prince’s name. The brands in this section represent artists for whom a solo career has become a space of absolute creative freedom, and the emblems capture the individual mythologies they have created over decades of concert and studio work.
