• The artwork of William Schaff

  William Schaff, in addition to having a name that vaguely resembles Wills, has created the cover art for almost every Okkervil River record. He also plays the role of Chop Chop the drumming chimp in the Providence guerilla marching band the What Cheer? Brigade. He's an amazing artist and an amazing fellow - here's a link to a flickr page of his artwork.
