Gregg Gillis is Girl Talk

Saturday, September 22, 2007

Gregg Gillis does not consider himself a DJ. Gregg Gillis is an artist of sorts.  He samples pop-music from any decade, any imaginable genre and throws it together. The end result is something truly amazing; an intricate collage of lyrics, beats, and hooks mashed together to make music.  Sampling artists such as James Taylor, Trey Songz, Notorius B.I.G., Elton John, Kanye West, Phil Collins, Weezer, and Mike Jones; for Gillis there are no rules.  Anything with a beat, anything with words, anything goes. 

On top of his mash-ups, Gillis has done remixes for several artists including Beck and Peter, Bjorn and John.  Just recently Gillis quit his job to pursue music full-time.  He will be playing shows almost every single weekend from now until January!  Now that is dedication at its finest.  Go to a show, dance your pants off, buy the album and show some love! Gregg Gillis is Girl Talk.
