He went on a national tour with Keaggy for about a year. Gaskill was soon asked, along with Pinnick, to join the Phil Keaggy band (presumably through Keaggy's previous work with Volz) which they accepted. Pinnick accepted, but a month after his arrival, the project fell apart. They also asked bassist Doug Pinnick to move to Springfield and join the band. Volz who was putting a new band together and asked Gaskill to participate. He never lost the musical bug and was quick to involve himself in the local music circles. In 1978, Gaskill decided to attend Evangel College in Springfield, Missouri and moved there with the intention of becoming a Biblical Studies major.

He then became involved in the local Christian music scene playing at churches and jamming with other like-minded musicians. Gaskill played with them until he was 18, at which time he had a self professed 'Born Again' experience. He then joined a local band called Frog Ocean Road who he had admired. Jerry and the Knights played at different functions such as talent shows, wedding receptions, parties and so on until his mid-teens. Gaskill played his first bar gig when he was seven years old with this group and was paid $2 for his efforts. The three actually started an all-instrumental band called Jerry and the Knights. He grew up in a very musical family with both his dad and brother being guitar players.
