Our Tattoo Creeper project is a way to collaborate with talented artists to add their spin on our creepers. We love working with creatives in any capacity & we want to see the world from their lens. To check out more of Caelan and the rest of Billy & the Kidz, head to their Instagram  

What was your inspiration when designing the shoe? 

Hi I’m Caelan, these boots inspired me to make something creepy and head turning. I’ve always wanted to make custom shoes and this idea just struck me hard. Inspiration for these shoes came from my love for horror and the occult. Creepy stuff is my vibe!

How would you describe your personal style?

My personal style is an emo kid that is forced to dress like he still isn’t one but is failing.

How’d you get started in music?

My start in music started as a kid slaying guitar hero and rock band. My parents soon bought me real instruments and I never stopped.

Are there any bands or artists that have been influential to your music/life?

I cannot list the number of bands that have inspired me at so many points in my life. But I will name a few outliers. Bring me the horizon circa (2010) Nirvana, and Sublime.

What currently fuels your creativity?

Currently my creativity is fueled by working with other artists around me and taking inspiration and running with whatever feels good and fun.

What’s next for Billy and the Kidz?

What’s next? Bigger and better things, we are on the up and up and we are so excited.
