John Gilliam - Secretary
John Gilliam is “Missoula Slim,” a songwriter-singer from San Marcos, Texas. John got his moniker from Kent Finlay, "the Godfather of Texas songwriters," at Cheatham Street Warehouse in 2004. Missoula has been writing and performing for the last 20 years, mostly in and around Montana, Washington and Texas. He has recently surfaced at such distinguished venues as the Saxon Pub and Threadgill's in Austin, Cheatham Street Warehouse in San Marcos, and Riley's Tavern in Hunter.
Missoula Slim writes in a variety of styles, ranging from folk and country to jazz and alternative rock. Many of his songs contain bits of his offbeat wit and wisdom. He is currently performing in and around San Marcos and Austin, and serves as past president of the Austin Songwriters Group, and as an officer and board member for the Cheatham Street Music Foundation. Missoula performs every Wednesday at the historic Cheatham Street Warehouse in San Marcos, Texas, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. with his most excellent guitarist, "Dangerous Dan" Praver, and his bass player "Sergeant" Carter.
John is also an attorney in San Marcos. He has a general solo practice, focusing on Wills, Trusts, Estate Planning and Probate. He also provides advice and counsel in the areas of Entertainment Law and ERISA benefits denial cases. |
