Gilliam

Could have been a genius

About Me


Gilliam was founded in 2000.
Then it was founded again in 2001.
And yet again in 2004. and again in 2005.

By 2006 we got tired of founding the band, and decided to simply exist.

So far, it's been going pretty alright.

Heart boiling

We thought the reviews of our debut concert last month were heart warming. If so, the reviews of our Saturday show, opening for Hot Fur despite the protests of some Mundeal fans (including severa...
