In related news, Gill has become an official member of the Time Jumpers, a Western swing band that performs each week at Nashville's Station Inn. Most of the band members are local session musicians. Previously, Gill played sporadically with the band but will now be regularly appearing at the Monday night shows as his touring schedule permits.
