We recently connected with Brandon Sides and have shared our conversation below.
Brandon, appreciate you joining us today. We’d love to hear about one of the craziest things you’ve experienced in your journey so far.
In 2021 I hopped a ride to NYC with a world-famous muralist and friend, headed to the annual Buschwick Collective art festival, hoping to get in on the muralist community for financial and artistic gain.
A few months after that was over, I had an opportunity to start a print shop, and the first collection was with the same muralist…
We run an unorthodox print/promo company, and I’d love to share the story of how we got here, and where we are headed.
Brandon, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
I’ve been a jack of all trades since I was a musician in college, but these days what. essentially do is – brand companies, artists, events, and products.
My dyslexic approach starts with the end viewer in my mind, working my way back toward the vision at the beginning. I pride my craft on my ability to solve problems and see possibilities outside of the box.
I have two grad degrees, Philosophy and Religious Studies.
I have a recording studio (Studio 512) in Salisbury, NC (although it’s been a bit dormant since COVID).
Apparel Printing and Promotional Merch brand (Neon Sun)
All of these are under the umbrella of my original company: RHB Creative, where branding, marketing, web design, photography/videography, and other misc services are housed.
We’d love to hear your thoughts on NFTs. (Note: this is for education/entertainment purposes only, readers should not construe this as advice
Please ask! Phone interview?
Is there mission driving your creative journey?
It seems the goal guided by my gut is always a collaborative one. I think we can achieve a lot in building out the Charlotte art community in a way that is not only fiscally viable, but a model we can give to other communities in the same spot.
