Name Brand Tattoo has been tattooing Ann Arbor, Michigan since 1999, operating as a custom tattoo co-op in the heart of downtown. Over the years it has built a reputation as a premier studio in the Midwest, known for an innovative, straightforward approach to traditional tattooing that has earned recognition from tattoo artists and collectors worldwide. The shop is home to a roster of six resident artists, including Jeff Zuck, Julian Bast, Nick Melody, Paul Jamison, and John MacIntyre, alongside rotating resident guest artists who bring additional perspectives to the studio's collective style.
While the studio specializes in Traditional American and Japanese tattooing, the artists work across a wide range of approaches, from Americana and Folk Art to Hermetic and Esoteric Symbolism, and take on all styles for clients. Walk-ins are welcome alongside custom appointment work, making the shop accessible to both first-timers and dedicated collectors. Guest artists appear regularly, with updates shared through the studio's social channels. Now marking 25 years in business, the Ann Arbor institution continues to be shaped by the community of customers and artists who have supported it since 1999.
