Ep. 063: Jill w/ Danny Dunlap

JILL was a pop-punk band, from San Angelo, TX, that was active from the years 1993 - 1997.   They self-released a 4-song cassette that led to Springbox Records (Benecia, CA) "signing" the band, releasing the Scary Thoughts 7" as well as the Just Like Fonzie EP.    They also released a split 7" with New Jersey pop-punk band True Zero, on Coolidge Records, and also had a song included on a 7" compilation released on Act Your Age Records.   Their sound could be described as a hooky combination of Lookout! Records era Green Day, Jawbreaker, and Ramones inspired bands such as Screeching Weasel.   I got Danny on the phone and this is what we talked about: Apple 80s music Writing about girls Playing in sketchy bars Playing with Jimmy Eat World Scrapping a full album that still exists The Lavaleans (lava lean ahs) Coolidge Records The Fonzy Legal Story How he met Alan Rappaport Weird NJ And a ton more Check out the JILL Facebook page and Danny's band Gentlemen Rogues.
