 In addition to the literary connection the name is derived from Herodes Atticus, a Greek rhetorician who spent his fortune supporting music and the arts.The Atticus logo, created by Dylan Anderson, depicts a bird lying on its back in an almost cartoon death position, inspired by the "To Kill a Mockingbird" title.The logo also pays homage to the fictional record label Death Records in the 1974 Brian De Palma film Phantom of the Paradise.
