Description
Depicts a skeleton changing the record inside of an open jukebox with a face and cowboy hat. The text "Detroit Rock City" and "Jukebox Cowboys" is displayed. The mural was a collaboration between two international artists, Nychos and Flying Fortress, and two local artists, Revok and Rime. The street art collaborative group Jukebox Cowboys also assisted, and the mural was funded through support by 1XRUN. A limited glide print edition released by 1xRUN and signed by both artists was sold after the mural's completion.
