Join us tonight for Camp Kelly: a fundraiser to support the remarkable ! Let’s come together and support Kelly the best way we know how - through Music and Art. Funds from this event will help to continue her fight, ease her mind and fulfill many of her goals.
About Kelly:
Kelly Bigelow Becerra is a super talented, creative genius with a very big heart. She has recently gone public with the news that her stage four cancer is terminal and progressing quickly and that her doctor's prognosis is that she may not be with us for very long. She is a loving soul with a magnetic personality, whose kindness and desire to inspire people around her is very rarely found in this world. She has dedicated her life to the arts through her artwork, films, designs and teaching. She has shared her love of art through public speaking, teaching and mentoring so many students, fellow artists and frankly, anyone that would listen. She is adored by her friends & community and has given back in so many ways and now she needs our help.
And if you'd like to help out even more, here is a link to Kelly's GoFundMe: https://www.gofundme.com/f/t46bz-kelly-needs-your-help

We at BlackRock Rocks would like to extend our sincere appreciation for our friend David Hogan and deep sadness at the news of his passing. As a musician, he volunteered Graylight Campfire for the cause no less than four times. As a supporter and attendee of BRR events, he was there even more often. The years of pictures from our Photo Booth feature him prominently time and time again. In truth, he is the first member of the Black Rock Rocks family to leave us, and for that, we are especially saddened.
His joy and energy added a unique and vibrant element to the complex tapestry of our events and to the music family as a whole. He was generous and kind enough to offer his talents always, even without prompting. He always arrived with a smile on his face, with or without gear. His support, and his heart, always genuine.
Our thoughts and condolences go out to his family, loved ones, and bandmates. A unique and bright candle has gone out in our community. Let us all remember Dave, for the tremendous person he was, for his generosity, for the music he gave us, and for his joyful spirit. We will miss him.
To riff off a quote, a good song will stand, but a good spirit will soar. Forever.
Good night, Dave. Enjoy the jam and the view from above.
⁃Your BRR Family
