Jerry at age five preferred playing kick ball in the park, however he was forced to take piano lessons. At age fourteen, after seeing a J. Geils video on MTV, he realized that by playing piano (keyboards) he could actually be in a 'rock band'....so he bought his first half-key sized "Casio" and he was on his way to stardom.
From Indiana to Kentucky to Florida and finally here in Tennessee, Jerry has played in a variety of bands and styles for going on twenty four years. Rock and roll has always been his favorite though, and he now finds a home with the Bag a Cats. Playing with local bands such as The Midnight Roosters, EZ Street and Pajama Jackson, he has plenty of exposure and experience in the Tri-Cities music scene.
Jerry works as a graphic artist at a local printing company and is a diehard football and basketball fan.
"If I'm ever late somewhere....it's because I had to see just one more play...."
