The Gillis Silo Live

Published: June 7, 2015, 8 p.m.

Join us this week as we welcome the country rock band, The Gillis Silo. The band traces its' roots back to Northern Afghanistan, where singer/songwriter Caleb Paul was deployed during 2012-2013 with the US Army. Caleb wrote many songs while in Kabul. Upon his return home to Baton Rouge he called upon seasoned musicians Jordan Snyder, Jared Daigle, Karl Boudreaux, and Josie Menard to carefully construct their alternative rock infused country sound. Since the band's first performance in January 2014, The Gillis Silo has made waves throughout the U.S. with their own brand of music that fans have dubbed "Country on the Rocks". They have had the privilege of sharing the stage with Florida Georgia Line, Eli Young Band, Trace Adkins, Collin Raye, Tracy Byrd, Aaron Lewis, Jana Kramer, Chris Young, Easton Corbin, Parmalee, Billy Dean, Blackjack Billy, and members of Shenandoah. In exciting news for 2015, they will be releasing their debut EP "Pieces Of The Highway". We will talk to The Gillis Silo about their upcoming schedule, get a behind the scenes look at their music, feature their latest songs, and ask them to share their message for the troops.
