Jillea has 22 tattoos, 11 piercings, and black hair, but the music she produces isn’t roll-in-the-glass punk rock or head-banging hard rock. The 21-year-old small town gal with a city edge only stomps on clichés and stereotypes. With a killer emotive voice, she creates an urban-tinged pop that has a gentleness and vulnerability. Jillea’s debut single and EP will be released this summer through Universal Music Canada.
