Artist History The Jason and Jillian Band formed in July of 2001 for a small coffeehouse gig. In November of that year they released their debut recording, an EP entitled 'Open.' After receiving heavy airplay on college radio, the band signed with Milquetoast Records and released their self-titled full length. The band then relocated to Greensboro, NC so Jillian could pursue an MFA in creative writing poetry. Her most recent publications include 'The Atlantic Monthly.' The band plays all over the East coast and will be heading back to the study in January to record their sophomore effort.
