Jerry joined Travis on piccolo guitar for the release of his solo album\, From the Mouth of Pikes Cave\, at Gold Camp Brewing in December of 2017. Since then they’ve played at the ROLL Bike Art Festival at Buffalo Lodge\, the Starlight Spectacular\, the Muscular Sclerosis Alliance Benefit Concert at Hillside Gardens\, Pikes Peak Art Council\, Council of Neighbors and Organizations\, Tap Traders\, and Trails End Taphouse. \nAbout # of flesh\nA one-night only pop-up photographic exhibition of personal projects from 12 student photographers from University of Colorado Colorado Springs\, on view in the Kircher Gallery. Artists identified a topic that is meaningful and resonant for them\, and committed to being immersed and focused on that topic for the semester-long project. Themes for the projects include: examination of the carceral state on loved ones who live on the outside; rural resilience; the experiences and bonds of siblings that live together as adults; Black joy and liberation; visions of disassociation; gentrification; the human body as a site of strength and contemporary beauty; alternate visions of life’s outcomes if other paths were taken; what living with a diagnosis looks like to both the person assigned it and those that are closest to that person; dreams lost to Covid; what stagnancy and being stuck could look like if it was a living entity; and confronting the deep fear of being alone for one’s life.
