9. Masthead

10. Coverline
 Double coloured = red and
black = classical colours for a
modern font sans-serif. Modern
influence of country music.
 ‘I’ are joined in stadium and
king. Highlighted in red.
Interesting twist.
 Kenny Chesney highlighted in
red, shows that it is him in the

11. Quotation.
 This text is in serif text. Expresses the
classical appeal of country music and
reflects the image presented by KC
 Yellow quotation marks highlight the
quote by KC, however the actual
section is quite small drawing more
attention to the musician in the
picture rather than what is covered in
the magazine.
