Billy Corgan History
As the guitarist/singer/head-songwriter for the
Smashing Pumpkins, Billy Corgan was one of alt-
rock's leaders and focal points for much of the '90s.
Born on March 17, 1967, in Elk Grove, IL, Corgan's
first true exposure to music came from his father,
Bill Corgan, Sr., who was a blues guitarist. After his
parents divorced at an early age, Corgan moved
from one relative to the next, and by age 14, he
began playing guitar himself (citing such hard
rock bands as Cheap Trick and Van Halen as
important early influences). In 1985, Corgan formed
his first real band, a goth metal group called the
Marked. After gigging around the Chicago area, the
Marked soon relocated from Illinois to St. Petersburg,
FL, in pursuit of greener musical pastures. However,
the change of scenery did little to improve the group's
fortunes, and so the Marked disbanded and Corgan
moved back north, into his father's house in Chicago.

Working at a record store, Corgan
began putting the pieces together for
his next band, which would be the
Smashing Pumpkins. He befriended
guitarist James Iha and bassist
D'Arcy, and the three started to
play around Chicago. But from the
advice of a friend, Corgan checked out
Jimmy Chamberlin, who immediately
landed the gig with his powerful, John
Bonham-esque drumming style. Like
the Marked, the Pumpkins merged a
dark alternative sound with metal, but
also gave it a psychedelic and
experimental twist. Several independent
singles led to a deal with Caroline
Records, who issued their debut, Gish,
in 1991. A woefully underrated guitarist,
Corgan's wild, Jimi Hendrix-esque
playing was an integral part of the early-
Pumpkins sound.

With each subsequent album (1993's classic
Siamese Dream, 1995's double-album Mellon
Collie), the Pumpkins grew in popularity, until they
were one of rock's top dogs by the mid- to
late '90s.
A very proficient songwriter, Corgan contributed
Pumpkins songs to movie
soundtracks (Singles,
Lost Highway, Batman & Robin), supplied the
musical score for such
movies as Stigmata and
Ransom, and produced albums for such other artists
as Ric Ocasek,
Hole, and Catherine. After the
Pumpkins split in 2000, many assumed Corgan
would
automatically pursue a solo career, but
shortly after playing several shows with New Order
as
a sideman/guitarist in the summer of 2001,
Corgan announced his next project would be a
new
band. Called Zwan, the group featured Corgan joined
by former bandmate Chamberlin
on drums, as well
as Matt Sweeney (from Chavez) on guitar and David
Pajo (Papa M/Slint) on
bass. Pajo soon moved over
to guitar with the additional of bassist Paz
Lenchantin (formerly of
A Perfect Circle), and the
quintet released their debut album, Mary Star of the
Sea, in January
2003. However, in September of
2003, Zwan disbanded under somewhat cloudy
circumstances, and Billy Corgan announced that he
would finally take the plunge as a solo
artist.
