Debuting on December 15, this exhibit showcases a curated collection of photographs capturing iconic moments from the lens of legends through generations from the ‘70s to present - it's a visual symphony that celebrates the legendary music scene of San Diego and beyond.

Featuring iconic acts like Rocket from the Crypt, Fluf, The Bronx, The Schizophonics, Anya Marina, The Silent Comedy, Drive Like Jehu, Charles Bradley, Billy Joe Armstrong, Silversun Pickups, Low Volts, Cigarettes after Sex, July Talk, and many more. each photograph is a frozen note in time, capturing the raw energy and emotion that defines these artists from a personal level lens that only a few have been lucky to be able to see through. Our gallery walls will echo with the visual stories of concerts backstage, behind the scenes, in a studio, during a tour, bringing the spirit of legendary venues like the Casbah and the airwaves of radio '91x' to life.

Produced with meticulous care, each photograph is printed using the original 100 year old technology, emulsion through state-of-the-art wet lab machines on crystal archive paper, ensuring unparalleled durability and color fidelity. The 100% UV-resistant true photographs are then set in hand-crafted, genuine wood gallery frames, marrying the authenticity of the underground art scene with the fine art flair.

With any image in your personal collection or at Hotwater Gallery you'll be transported to the front rows of history's greatest concerts, backstage pass in hand, with the headliner you can feel you have known personally for ages. From the vibrant punk scene of the '70s to bedroom pop, "SHOOT" is a journey through decades of music, as seen through the lenses of those who were best qualified to capture it.
