Meet the 2024 Featured Artists

Every year, the Moss Rock Festival selects a new artist or art collective to create a poster for the event.

This year’s featured artists are Levi Johnson and Jordan Thompson of Bendy Knees– a team of local muralists in Birmingham responsible for creating some of the city’s most colorful and eye-catching installations.

“We love when our featured artists have created a work of art or design especially for the Festival poster. That’s been a wonderful tradition over the years.”

Alex Kunzman, Co-Director & Marketing Director, Moss Rock Festival
