Jesse Ray Smith, Justin Froese & Anna Ballew all at Belly Up Tavern Jesse Ray Smith I was raised in the artistic, small-town suburbs of Marin County, a few miles and a full generation removed from the hippy movement that swept through San Francisco in the late 60’s. From Fleetwood Mac's Rumours to Stevie's Songs in the Key of Life, many great records came out of Marin County, fueled by the musical prowess of legendary concert promoter Bill Graham. This was my home, and these legends were a part of the infrastructure that sustained us. Although my parents weren’t big Deadheads, their catalog ran deep, exposing me to a vast collection of great records and artists. Whether it was Graceland, Ziggy Stardust or Dark Side of the Moon — a record was always playing and music was a very present part of my life. Justin Froese In a world where genres strive to define and confine, Justin Froese emerges as a captivating force, effortlessly traversing musical landscapes with his groove-driven alt-pop stylings. With a decade of classical training under his belt, Justin's ability to transcend and defy genres is a testament to his innate talent and unparalleled artistry. Anna Ballew A Missoula Montana native, Anna Ballew entered the San Diego music scene in 2021, incorporating jazz-guitar stylings and soulful vocals to pop R&B hits, modern classics and original songs. Her formal entrance to music started with classical violin at age four, then transitioned to bluegrass fiddle at the age of eleven. This ignited her love of free-form and collaborative musical spaces. After hearing her father jam to folk-americana artists like Jackson Browne and James Taylor as a kid, she decided to pick up guitar and try out singing for family and friends at dinner parties in high school. From hometown performances and acapella groups in college to moving to California and becoming a full-time musician, Anna has swiftly moved through stages of a musical journey. Now modeling her sound around artists like Amy Winehouse, Ella Fitzgerald and Lake Street Dive, Anna is working on her first EP to be released in the next year, and can be found performing around at local restaurants and live music venues in Southern California.

From the gallery: Tom Driscoll has been making sculptures for over 50 years in San Diego, often organic or industrial forms cast in concrete or gypsum cement. At The Museum Of__, Driscoll presents a recent series of secondhand trophies which he has altered through a process of combining, removing, and fusing different sport figures. By dipping them in a tinted polyester resin, each figure has been manipulated in unexpected ways improvised by the artist. Sometimes two or several figures, the majority being athletes in action, are merged, holding hands, or entangled in either an embrace or struggle. Humor is everywhere in this circus of figures. Driscoll’s trophies are a reflection of one’s success transformed into archeological finds. About the artist: Tom Driscoll was born and raised in San Diego. After returning from the service in 1966, he enrolled at Southwestern College in Chula Vista. At the time, the Art Department was at a high point of activity when art faculty members included Bob Matheny and John Baldessari, and an ongoing “Artist Speakout” series included visits from Robert Irwin, Kurt Von Meier, Ed “Big Daddy Roth,” at least one Hell’s Angel, and many others. In the 80s he lived among the small art scene of Downtown San Diego, meanwhile working nights at a Scripps Institution of Oceanography lab located in Point Loma. It was there that he encountered “trashed” material which became an integral part of his work. Driscoll has continued to experiment with the formalist potential of the detritus of everyday life, including Styrofoam packaging and plastic shipping material. He has exhibited extensively in solo and group shows throughout San Diego, and his work is in the collection of the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego.
