Gil lived in Chicago until his mother got sick and familial pressure forced him to leave. He’ll talk about his ‘Wandering Years’ if asked, but doesn’t enjoy it much and will change the subject as quickly as possible. He will talk at length about his time in Sound and Furious, but likes to focus more on their early days than their breakup. These days, he is still making music with wife and bandmate Kayla. He still doesn’t love the spotlight but has grown used to it by now. He is attempting to broaden his professional horizons by branching out into some musical production and recording, with the aim of starting a small label of his own eventually. He is in ‘negotiations’ with Kayla and Cait about what they might call their theoretical label.
