Story of the Mural
In 1993, the Sound Exchange record store in Austin, Texas commissioned Johnston to paint a mural of the Hi, How Are You? frog (also known as “Jeremiah the Innocent”) from his 1983 album cover. At the time, the frog image had recently become nationally recognized from media images of Kurt Cobain wearing a “Hi, How Are You?” T-shirt.
About Daniel Johnston
Daniel Johnston has spent the last 20 or so years exposing his heartrending tales of unrequited love, cosmic mishaps, and existential torment to an ever-growing international cult audience. Initiates, including a healthy number of discerning musicians and critics, have hailed him as an American original in the style of bluesman Robert Johnson and country legend Hank Williams.
Surprisingly, the bulk of his considerable acclaim snowballed from a series of homemade, lo-fi cassettes that Daniel started recording and handing out to fans and friends alike in the early 80s.
