Playlist Storytellers


Logo design and event assets for Playlist Storytellers, a brainchild of Danny Desatnik bringing together storytelling and listening sessions. Here, humans to retell moments of their lives that are intertwined with songs special to them, and play the song for everyone too. 2025

Logo


The logo is inspired by vinyls (duh) but also giving songs an extra dimension — just as the storytellers do by adding context, memories, and nostalgia every in-person event.

The thought behind the backdrop is to give Playlist Storytellers its own portable set and vibe, something iconic to the brand as the desk to NPR’s Tiny Desk Concerts. In particular, Danny pulled inspiration from Amex’s “Story of My Song” series.

“Lyrics” are handwritten to emphasize the humanity behind the music and storytellers, but rather than lyrics, these are the words to PLST’s mission — its manifesto and its mantra.
