Credits
I have been a fulltime muse/singer/musician/Designer since I was old enough to understand what music and cameras were. I have lived and traveled internationally working with top ten agencies, while being a top art model, I have many tearsheets, reel links, to music videos, film projects, editorials and so on. I have toured and performed on major stages with major names, but I love making art, and being a visual muse inspires my musical muse and they work symbiotically for me. I can provide a list of photograpehrs, refrences, refferals, tearsheets and reels or a full resume upon request. I do this because I love it and i love co creating and the magic it inspires inside out, and plan on continuing to do this until I no longer breathe.

The Bio:
Jillian Ann is a multi-media artist who is equally comfortable behind a piano, in front of a camera, singing on festival stages, or producing tracks for a DJ set in a nightclub.  A singer-songwriter with a classically trained pianist, Jillian is also a programing geek. This allows her to cross the areas of electronica, Goth, and rock while experimenting and collaborating with cutting edge DJ's and producers. Together they work with dubstep, downtempo, chill glitch hop, electro house, trance, and sounds so new they have yet to be assigned a musical genre.
When Jillian’s agent suggested to her that there was no room for ‘girls’ in bass music, she responded by immediately cutting that agent loose. Determined to work even harder to fight those stereotypes and the belief that women are only successful if funded by major labels promoting pop music, Jillian pressed on to prove that women can take on headlining slot at major festivals. Now Jillian Ann is one of the exceptions to the rule of “all-male line-ups”, a rule she encourages other women to challenge as well.
Jillian’s DJ Career is growing and she has landed prime slots at domestic and international festivals including 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 artists to be given big name spots in both major clubs and underground festivals.
Refusing to preprogram her sets just as much as she refuses to only play one genre, Jillian spends hours head hunting and creating new tunes for each show. Her sets are constantly evolving, leaving people sweating and glued to the dance floor. Her goal as a DJ/singer is to take people on a journey, to expand their hearts while allowing them to release energy by dancing.
Jillian 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.
"Quiet Riot" a song featured in Mix Magazine and gained international support from artist such as Knife Party, Flux Pavilion, Krewella and countless others, has been in the top 100 for dubstep since November 2012. Every release Ms. Ann 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 to web site design, photography to fashion. To that end, she has co-founded a company “Ritual” with Cassidy Haley formerly of SkinGraft Fashions.  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 an encompassing creative company that will bring forth music, fashion, shows and a limited edition couture line.
The Heart:
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.  Ms. Ann stresses the need to be responsible in thought and deed and humane to all.

The Track Record and the Gear:
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 as her own solo shows. Last year she began DJing with live vocals and has been producing and remixing tracks for herself and others. Now she is DJing/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 featuring a full, live band. She is presently running Ableton as well as Traktor. Typically she runs the following equipment for her DJ sets:
2 laptops with Ableton and Traktor
1 Traktor Kontrol S4
2 TC HELICON VOICELIVE box
1 Behringer 8 TRACK Mixer
2 Behringer 2 TRACK mixers
1 Novation Keyboard
Personal Info:
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 and a blogger, a fervent Twitter user, and is skilled in multimedia creations. Additionally Ms. Ann enjoys photography and creating pretty, sexy things for people to wear.
Finding them too limiting, Jillian has turned down several record deals, instead preferring to find distribution partners for her musical creations. Jillian has this to say about the present music climate:
"Having a major label partner is great for some acts, but not for those who experiment and want to stay on the creative edge. I'm too much of a control freak to allow somebody I do not know to come in and design a website, plan a strategy, or tell me what trends I should follow, and when I did have major label support I ended up doing everything myself anyway.  Now I own what I do and if people steal my music, at least they are stealing it from me. Maybe that way I can convince some of them to actually pay for it or at least come see me live or buy merchandise.  Most people have no idea how hard it is to actually make ends meet in today's climate where the rights of artists are routinely stepped on by everyone from local promoters to pirates sites, right up to the major cartels…all this in a world were art is more needed than ever."
NEWS:  Jillian has just released the “Passes Away” EP on Simplify records and will add a follow up EP by mid-June. She is also planning a fashion show premiere at The Myth Masque 2013 at the historic Vibiana in Los Angeles, as well as a music project inspired by the Ritual fashions later on this year.

Last Thoughts:
“I'd like to live in a world where compassion and kindness are not seen as weaknesses to be exploited, where being different triggers interest and not suspicion, where art is once again recognized as an important quality of life.  I want people to recognize that by hurting the planet we are killing ourselves.” ~J.A
