GINA ILASI (aka - The Goddess of Thunder) - Drums
She picked up her first pair of sticks at 8 years old and hasn’t put them down since. Music is life for Gee.
What made her pick drums? She doesn't really have an actual reason other than it just felt right. She knew she wanted to pursue and create music and be on stage performing it. She was not sure how she knew that at 8 years old but she did. To this day (let’s just say it’s over 25 years later) there’s no better feeling for Gee then being behind the kit…..She's completely in her element back there. It’s salvation. It’s home. After watching MTV one day and seeing a Go Go’s video followed by a Joan Jett video She literally said to her parents that she wanted to be a rock star. Thankfully they were beyond supportive about it. They were willing to invest the time and money into it for Gee and she is eternally grateful for that. Her preferred genre is Rock/Metal but she really dose listen to EVERYTHING. Her influences are all over the map as well: John Bonham, Buddy Rich, Ginger Baker, Gina Schock, Chris Adler, Tommy Lee, Arejay Hale, Morgan Rose, Steven Adler, Vinnie Paul, Kenny Arnoff, Mike Bordin, Chad Smith etc. All of my teachers and bandmates (former and current) have inspired and influenced Gee as well.
Her CURRENT projects are: 2 original bands – Terror Garden and Love and Murder. She has been with both of those projects for over 5 years and they have recorded and released several CD’s and have played shows to support them. Her all-female original band, Dormitory Effect, also played the circuit from the mid 2000’s and on. They still do reunion shows here and there from time to time as some band members moved out of state. Gee is also a member of Guns N’ Hoses which is an all-female tribute to Guns N’ Roses. Being in a band is blood, sweat and tears but is also SO rewarding if it’s done right. She has been lucky enough to travel and play live shows all around the world with my projects, be featured in national magazines and all over the internet, be on TV and share the stage with amazing local and national acts everywhere. Past bands include: Neutron Café, Sympathetic Magic, Swear On Your Life, Produkt, Lay Your Hands On Me (all female Bon Jovi Tribute) and Moxie Crue (all female Motley Crue tribute)
… and now I get to play with Eden's Revenge!
