a little heads up folks. we are currently preparing a WEBSITE REVAMP. so at some point in the next month or so we will be offline for a tiny bit and then back with a CONTEMPORARY WEBSITE. what does it mean?????? RESPONSIVENESS. DOWNLOADABLES. TWIN KITTENS. get excited.
ps kitten by frances macdonald.
ooo we’ve been busy down on the Island Of Granville. previews start tomorrow, and opening night is next wednesday. get your tickets at the arts club website. i have bowed out of this run, and the lovely marguerite witvoet is being me while also being herself. quite fantastic. plus diva josh epstein joins the seasoned team. still more new songs, while retaining all of the old happy/sad feelings!
this is it, this is the day! peter panties is out in the world! you can download it here at bandcamp or buy the WHITE VINYL in person at a show. far away people, i will have a limited number of vinyl available online here later this week. and the reviews have started. look! radio free canuckistan! and four stars in the star!
i’m a little overexcited. toronto people, see you tonight at the music gallery. vancouver people, see you april 6th at the wise hall. must go pace around.
something about this album really lends itself to alliteration. just put up two songs from the record at CBCR3.
happy almost new year peoples! i hope it’s all going swimmingly out there. i’m ready to step into the new year, and not just because a new season of Girls is starting. i’m gearing up for a toronto run of the Craigslist Cantata, and i have a regular old veda hille show there too: feb 25 at the music gallery. when was the last vh toronto show? 2008 or something crazy like that? come on out, it might be another 4 years. also, vancouver shows in april: peter panties release show on the 6th at the wise, and a vh/ivan coyote show at the waldorf on the 9th. and then Craigslist starts up at the arts club revue again. it never stops!
and hey, our vancouver pad is still available for sublet in february if you want a grey month in a lovely city. lemme know. in the meantime, love hugs. xv
well gang, i have to say that rehearsals for the return of the Craigslist Cantata are going swimmingly. laughing my head off and singing my guts out, etc. first show this monday. all dates listed here. including whitehorse! at last i return to whitehorse.
in other news, we had a little computer glitch here at Hille Enterprises and i just found out this morning that there was a huge backlog of cd orders. i have dispatched them, but apologies to all those who sent in orders at the beginning of september. no doubt you feel well acquainted with the void.
and lastly, it seems my star has finally risen: i am the subject of a Trivial Pursuits question. i am speechless, grateful, and proudly trivial. see you on games night.
this is me and ami (*gladstone, director and pal extraordinaire) getting down to it on craigslist cantata dramaturgical meetings. looks like fun, right? he’s so tall. that’s what makes it fun. so that’s what’s happening now, peoples. a metro vancouver tour, leading into a possible northern stop (tba), and then Winter In Toronto. other news: Peter Panties is finished, and we’re sending it to press in about a week. so i’d say that means a late october release. VINYL. SO COOL. more stuff is happening, rest assured. but really what’s happening is that the air has changed and it’s september and it’s the best, as always. the air is full of promise and in dreams i am meeting fascinating flying people. wish me luck, and i wish it to you.
