Dizzy

Some words from Font Bureau:

Dizzy pays homage to that great legend of bebop, John Birks ‘Dizzy’ Gillespie.

Jean Evans, long-term family and personal friend of Gillespie, was inspired to design this font after seeing a sample of his handwriting.

Its raw, peculiar but elegant shapes and the arhythmic cadence within and between words bring to typographic design a visual parallel to the extraordinary musical innovations of this twentieth-century genius.
