R.I.P. JAY CEBALLOS

We are so sorry to share the sad news that Strawberry icon Jay Ceballos from Camp Pig Out passed away yesterday. Jay and his lovely wife Mary Barry go way, way back with Strawberry and are well known in the greater music community. You’ve likely seen them at many a camp jam with Mary’s bass and Jay’s mandolin in tow. We welcome you to send your memories and pictures of Jay to info@strawberrymusic.com so they can be added to our website. Strawberry’s loving condolences go out to Mary and Jay’s whole circle of family and friends. Rest in peace Jay.

Richard will be missed and remembered! Rest in peace dear friend.
