About Me

I'm a circus-tall professional musician/devoted husband/dog enthusiast/ResuMAYDAY CFO/proud uncle from the western 'burbs of Chicago...but if you're actually here you probably already knew that! I'm probably best known as "Chili" Milligan...the drummer for the one and only Libido Funk Circus!

Rock...rap...electronica...metal...uber-sensitive ballads...silly songs about a pencil that's seen better days...I simply love writing, performing and producing music of all kinds. Click through my music player to hear a handful of the many tracks I've written, produced or played on over the years.

I've had the pleasure of writing and playing with many original bands and projects over the years, including Perfect Isolation, Mary's Window (www.myspace.com/MarysWindowBand), Lovelies Bleeding, The Media Darlings, Traveling Sky (www.myspace.com/TravelingSkyChicago), Release (www.myspace.com/ReleaseBandChicago), Charlie's Pipe Dream, The Urban Suburban Alliance (www.myspace.com/UrbanSuburbanUSA) & RPM (www.myspace.com/RPMChicago). Currently, I'm trying to finish up work on 3 original albums. An as-of-yet unnamed hard rock album I wrote with Jeff Harris and Meghan McKown; a dance-rock album ; and a dark, atmospheric synth-pop record I did with Kate Galluzzo called Lunation (www.myspace.com/lunation).
All of the CDs recorded by Traveling Sky, Release and RPM can be found at http://cdbaby.com/all/lfcentertainment. Check 'em out!

Taxi or Cab?

I have what I feel is a fairly unique look. Hell...at 6'5" tall, with a mo/fauxhawk, it's nothing short of impossible for me to successfully blend into a crowd, no matter how hard I try. I ...

Termites and inspiration

So, I've been thinking a lot recently about inspiration. Not creative inspiration, but the inspiration just to get up and do your thing...day in and day out. Last week I was driving in my wife's ...
