The Bay Area’s independent music community will remember the life and work of Murray Bowles. A longtime South Bay denizen, Bowles died at his Sacramento home in early December. The late Bowles was known well in the Bay Area, and his photos were celebrated around the world. The musician and photographer played with San Jose psychobilly outfit The Shitkickers (who headline the memorial), and most famously documented the early ’80s and ’90s East Bay punk rock scene. A cartoon version of Bowles appeared on the cover of Green Day’s breakout LP, Dookie.
