   About Brett Gillan
I like to play music. I'm in a band called "Brushfire" and there are a lot of great things happening with the band! Check out our myspace: www.myspace.com/brushfireband - Hope to see you out at a show soon!!!

I also play acoustic shows that consist of top 40 covers as well as songs from the 80's and 90's. I can tailor the set list to fit most any type of atmosphere from a relaxed dine-in experience to an upbeat college party. If you would like to book me at your club or event, please send me a message here on myspace. Thanks!

SOME OF THE PLACES I HAVE PLAYED:
Wildhorse Saloon (Nashville, TN), John Barleycorn (Schaumburg, IL), 8 Seconds (Indianapolis, IN), Social 25 (Chicago, IL), Crusens (Peoria, IL), Crusens II (Peoria, IL), Six Strings (Bloomington, IL), Daddio's (Bloomington, IL), NV Ultralounge (Normal, IL)...and many, many others.

One more thing, check out my top friends...they ALL ROCK!!!

You going to Taxi again this year? Just found out they're running ridiculously cheap flights to America....very tempting :)
