Formed in Northampton, MA, in the fall of 2004 by Bill Gillim (Vocals, Guitar) and Joel Ford (Bass, Keys, Vocals), Tigercity is a band whose material unabashedly reflects its influences; which range from The Police, Daft Punk, and Roxy Music, to classic Prince and Off The Wall-era Michael Jackson.
In the Summer of 2005 they picked up and moved to Brooklyn, and after a few months – with the help of friend/producer Al Carlson (Brazilian Girls) – the band had themselves a DIY bedroom EP, one that merited their inclusion on the VICE Magazine Vol. 1 CD/DVD sampler.
Yet it wasn’t until the early 2006 induction of guitarist Andrew Brady and drummer Aynsley Powell that Tigercity began to truly hit their stride. The additions allowed Tigercity to reach its potential, fleshing out the sound and providing added input in the songwriting process, effectively upping the creative anti. The combination of Gillim’s chilling falsetto and the now air tight rhythm section has turned Tigercity’s live show into an instant dance party.
In the past months, the band has shared the stage with everyone from M.I.A. and Jamie Lidell to David Cross and Serena Maneesh. Their growing momentum has earned them a spot on Chicago’s Tomorrow Never Knows Festival along side the likes of Dr. Dog and The Ponys, a trip to Miami to play a two-year anniversary celebration for the weekly party “Off The Radar”, and an Austin, TX, debut at this year’s SXSW. At home in New York and Brooklyn, Tigercity have sold out nearly every show they’ve played since late 2006. Tigercity myspace
