Daniel Vernon (Ngāti Kahungunu Te Wairoa) is a writer / illustrator who also plays a little music in DARTZ, which makes him a wee bit qualified, in his opinion, to create this comic series on musicians. You may know his satirical cartoons from his Instagram page Yeehawtheboys, his work with Re: News, and the DARTZ merch.
