KEXP is a Seattle radio station specializing in alternative and indie rock. This project is a redesign of their current mobile app. The focus of this project is an update to the look and feel and the integration of information about live shows and ticket purchasing.

User research determined that many Seattle locals didn’t find value in using the KEXP app because they could listen to KEXP over the airwaves. To drive more engagement with the app, the redesign adds a feature providing information about upcoming live shows for the currently playing artist and an ability to purchases tickets via the app.

 
 

The visual language for the redesign was informed by Seattle’s rich counterculture, grunge music, and the aesthetics of local labels like Sub Pop.
