Creativity is an interesting thing some people do not have very much of and then some people have it in spades! I am a firm believer that genetics has something to do with a person being super creative. I can look at my two kids with my wife Meghan and see that both of them have inherited their passion for visual art from her and their musical gene comes from me. What is interesting is how many unreal tattoo artists are also insanely talented musicians. Today I wanted to bring to your attention to five ultra creative musicians that are also rad tattooists. Don’t get it twisted – these individuals are also wicked illustrators, graphic artists and painters. It does make sense that tattoo industry is perfect for them, because it allows them to tour, to be their own boss and practice their love of art on the human canvas. The people you are about to see and hear move amongst many different genres.
