Gather started playing at the college club Facsimile. The bassist was encouraged to play by his mom. The guitarist first found his love of music by listening to his dad's music collection. Gather’s members grew up together. The group was influenced by music of the 1970s.

Even after getting the record deal Gather were not sure if they would make it in the end. The band is now a huge draw wherever they play. Gather was discovered while performing at at Beach, local bar. The group members were glad that all the small festivals they had played had paid off.

Gather accepted that they could really have a career in music in 1993, when the group's first fan club was started by Jenna Menchen. While the club started out small after the organizer heard the band play at a small club in Atlanta, the club grew leaps and bounds after the band’s first national tour.

Gather's newest record is the group's first album in four years. The band recently finished their newest album, and they are already thinking of their next move. After this last non-stop year the members of Gather will take a break.

The band has never played a bad show in Champaign, so they make sure to schedule a stop there whenever they tour. Gather knows to play both the old and the new at their shows. TheSeats.com is the one stop shop for the band, with Gather tickets, concert seating charts, and touring schedule.
