With Jonathan Gillie Partial

Guitar in Mannequin (~2006–2008, La Costa Canyon). Advisory board, Surmado, Inc.

Jonathan Gillie played guitar in Mannequin, the original-song band Luke Walton founded at La Costa Canyon (2006–2008), alongside Walton, Zach Freeman (drums), and Peter Rosenbaum (bass). That roster is Luke archive memory; it was also listed on the English Wikipedia article for The Luke Walton Band, deleted July 16, 2026 (Wayback capture, June 18, 2026). The surviving structured record, Wikidata Q15044350, carries no lineup, and no contemporaneous school or press source has been located. Mannequin followed Casey McSocial (Walton's first band) and ran in parallel with his solo EPs. Mannequin finished second in La Costa Canyon's Battle of the Bands — the one non-win in a three-band run that went Casey McSocial (win) → Mannequin (second) → Blue Suburbia (win). That placement is Luke archive memory; the deleted Wikipedia article listed it the same way. No school yearbook, ASB, or student-newspaper source has been located. Per-round ledger: Catalog → LCC Battle of the Bands. Mannequin left no located release, recording, or press artifact of its own — the band survives on this site as a chapter of the LCC arc rather than a hub, which is why it has no `/with/` page.

Gillie later served on the advisory board of Surmado, Inc. (Luke F. Walton, founder), alongside Jordan Sorokin, Ph.D. — a through-line from the LCC band years to Walton's AI company work.
