Connections Collaboration

Very recently Vancouver producer/performer Legsss and I decided to make a little music together. Going into it we had no idea what would come out of it, and frankly we still don’t. That being said we have somehow been invited to perform at Vandocuments Art Party: Connections. For those of you unfamiliar with Vandocument, it is a remarkable arts and culture online publication for the Vancouver arts and performance communities. The party is Saturday November 8th at The Remington Gallery and I am as excited as I am nervous. I know wholeheartedly that this is the perfect audience for Legsss and I to explore our barely pre-meditated, mostly improvised collaboration with. Come check it out, and heaps of other insane talents at Connections this Saturday!!!

Soon…

(A Summer Soft Opening, A Quiet Debut, A Secret for the Sweet and Few, A Welcome for a Full Moon)

Tributes and Galleries!

There is so much to get caught up on with you all but alas the minutes are cramped and so just a quick post to show off some beautiful posters for some fantastic shows I will be a part of in Vancouver this June.

Ready?

Tom Waits Tribute night at The Rio on June 6th! Get your tickets here.

I will be performing at Gallery1965 on the SOLSTICE (June 21st)! Working out some super mystical music for that one.

Hope to see you out at either of these fantastic events. They will likely be my last performances in Vancouver until September!

Much love,
Jess Hill

P.S. I have been doing a bit of processing in the realm of the heart and thus the release recap and the Toronto tales have yet to find their way into print. Soon. By the new moon of spring I promise, when I return from this tour I will share my remembrances on the last few months.

RELEASE PARTY!

Waldorf Hotel Cabaret Wednesday January 16th

It’s happening. What it will be remembered as is currently unknown but, no matter if it’s the grand finale of East Van love in’s at The Waldorf Hotel Cabaret or not it will be a spectacular night…(and with any luck we’ll get to do it again)

We will party and play like there’s no tomorrow because, well, there just might not be another chance to saunter into the Tiki Bar, shimmy across the Cabaret stage or get lost in The Hideaway. Time will reveal the future of the Waldorf Hotel and give us more insight into the depth of Mayor Gregor Robertson’s commitment to the arts.

For more information on exactly what is happening to the Waldorf Hotel visit and read the following:
