is a multi-media artist who is equally comfortable behind a piano or in front of a camera, singing on festival stages or producing tracks for a DJ set in a nightclub. A singer-songwriter with a classical training in Piano, Jillian is also a programing geek which allows her to cross the musical genres of electronica, goth and rock, all the while experimenting and collaborating with cutting edge dj's and producers in dubstep, downtempo, chill glitch hop, electro house, trance and sounds so new there is no name for them yet.
After being told by her agent that there was no room for 'girls' in bass music, she fired the agent and became determined to work even harder to fight the widely held belief that women were too poppy and could never be hard enough or really handle a headlining slot, unless they were bought and paid for by some major record label. At least as far as Jillian Ann is concerned, promoters would tend to agree that she is the exception to the rule, a rule Jillian encourages other women to challenge as well.
Her DJ Career has been growing and she has landed prime slots at domestic and international festivals including the Envision festival in Costa Rica and the massive Electric Daisy Carnival in Las Vegas. Playing one killer show after another, fusing the hottest beats with sexy vocals she has been claiming the stage as one of the few female electronica artist to be given headlining slots in both major clubs and underground festivals.
She has collaborated with countless producers creating chart toping hits with artist such as Phutureprimitive, Knight Riderz, Blunt Instrument, Pegboard Nerds, John B, Seba, Kraddy, Love and Light, David Starfire, Nit Grit, Ravager, Enei, Robert Vadney and Bruce Somers (of Kidneythieves). She has written a soon to be released album with Heavyweight Dub Champion/Liberation movement and is presently working with a number of new up and coming producers for her unique DJ sets which feature her singing live over exclusive tracks.
Her song "Quiet Riot" has been in the top 100 for dubstep since November 2012 and was featured in Mix Magazine and gained international support from artist such as Knife Party, Flux Pavilion, Krewella and countless others. Every release she has released in the last year has shot up the charts making her a staple in the dj and remixer community.
As time allows, Jillian loves creating in all mediums from music & film to web site design, photography to fashion and to that end, she has co-founded a company "RITUAL" with Cassidy Haley ( formerly of SkinGraft Designs). "RITUAL" was created in part to replace the tired old t-shirt game in music merchandising as well as to manifest Jillian's visions stemming from her years as an art and avant-garde fashion model. "RITUAL" is bringing forth a kaleidoscope of fashion, film, music, performance and film as a multimedia entertainment and lifestyle company.
Jillian is an ardent environmentalist and is committed to human, animal and planetary rights and her lyrics often cut to the core of her beliefs. Jillian stresses the need to be responsible in thought and deed and humane to all.
Jillian Ann is not a newcomer to major stages and large crowds; she's performed worldwide and fronted for Heavyweight Dub Champion and Auditory canvas as well in addition to her solo shows. Last year she added Dj'ing with live vocals and has been producing and remixing tracks for herself and others. Now she is Dj/Singing at festivals and club across the world. (A complete list of festivals, dates and venues is available upon request) Jillian's shows can range from self-contained to a full band. She is presently running Ableton as well as Traktor.
Jillian Ann is a self-funded artist from Georgia who now lives hidden in the woods near Los Angeles. She lives off of her earnings from performing, designing at her company "RITUAL" , modeling, acting and of course music sales.
Jillian is also a poet, blogger, tweets (a lot) and is skilled in multimedia creations and enjoys photography, and creating pretty sexy things for people to wear.
She has turned down several record deals finding them too limiting and prefers instead to find distribution partners for her musical creations.
