Jill Freeman

A native Los Angeleno, Jill began her professional career in music over 20 years ago. Her trio The Life Is Grand Band became stalwarts of the L.A. music scene, gaining an avid following for their tight vocals and original songwriting–a great feat at a time dominated by synths and drum machines. Their song “Feel Like Makin’ Art” was included on the Fast Folk series which is now part of the Folkways Smithsonian collection. Following the dissolution of the band, Jill went on to develop her own personal style of songwriting.
