HIT+RUN was created in 2005 by Southern California artists Brandy Flower and Mike Crivello. A product of the contagious enthusiasm they had seen from small silkscreening parties in their homes, HIT+RUN’s live T-shirt screenprinting events quickly grew, now hosted at music festivals and a variety of happenings around the world. At each HIT+RUN event, Flower and Crivello act as curators, selecting from their network of artists to compile a collection of exclusive single-color silkscreen designs. Guests personally select their own combination and placement of the designs, each graphic solely available during the single night exhibitions. Party goers interact in the screenprinting process on-site with the HIT+RUN CREW to create one-of-a-kind pieces of wearable art.
More than 250 events later, ranging from parties with Levi's, Nike, Microsoft, Target, Converse, Ray Ban, Boost Mobile, dublab, Gravis, Stones Throw, Oakley, Paper Magazine, Stoli, Saatchi+Saatchi, Toyota, The LA Philharmonic, 944, Guitar Center, The Fader, Giant Step, LACMA, The Standard Hotel, Fuel TV, Good Magazine, Hollywood & Highland, Natural History Museum of Los Angeles, Filter Magazine, Spaceland Productions, Urban Outfitters, Silverlake Conservatory of Music, Element Skateboards, Stuff Magazine, Fox, Geffen Records, Adult Swim, and Red Stripe Beer, the live screenprinting is always the center of interest. Guests stand, sometimes for an hour or more in line, in awe as Flower, Crivello and Crew juggle a collection of rare imagery.
The “HIT+RUN CREW” has become an expansive, ever-growing network of both underground and street level graphic and fine artists, including notable contributors such as Cody Hudson, Maya Hayuk, Kofie, Jeff Jank, Parra, kozyndan, HVW8, B+, Kime Buzzelli, Retna, Kevin Lyons, AMBUSCH and Restitution Press. In addition, Flower and Crivello develop their own screens for each event, which are the foundation for the HIT+RUN clothing line.
Flower and Crivello debuted their exclusive, limited t-shirt collections at The MAGIC Marketplace in 2007. At both Spring & Fall conventions in Las Vegas they collaborated with a group of progressive, urban clothing lines [Crooks & Castles, Dissizit!, Obey, Fresh Jive, Rebel8, In4mation, 10 Deep, Hellz Bellz, Foreign Family, Lemar & Dauley, Mighty Healthy and more] and screenprinted live on t-shirts for over 1000 show attendees.
In October 2007 they returned to Tokyo and printed at the Japanese clothing store store Base Control in Harajuku. In 2008 they opened their appointment-only studio featuring an expansive collection of exclusive artist designs, as well as new artist and brand collaborations. The first HIT+RUN "pop-up shop" appeared in downtown LA for one day only in April 2009, and a summer-long series of parties in Venice with Amp Energy also debuted their dj mix-cd series with exclusives by Kutmah, The Gaslamp Killer, Zackey Force Funk and Nobody. Look for the opening of the downtown LA store and nationwide expansion of the HIT+RUN Crew in 2010.
