Join Francis Hillier, Stellarize and special guest(s) at The Mint in Victoria, BC, Saturday, March 23, 2024!
Join us to celebrate the release of Local Victoria artist Francis Hillier's debut single "If Love Is Blind".
Former keyboardist for Vancouver bands including Faith and Desire, Vicious Rumours, Justus, Modern Romance and others, Francis has spent a lifetime intensely focused on music, music technology, and technology in general. Francis creates both the orchestrations and engineering used in his music, often inviting prominent guest artists to contribute to his works on various recordings. When the world's music tech is insufficient to his needs, he writes the software himself to force the instruments, lights, cameras, backgrounds, effects and visuals to bend to his will.
Most closely compared to David Bowie, Depeche Mode, and Crash Test Dummies, and often compared to Michael Hutchins of INXS, Mr. Hillier's songs have a modern flair that spans style and feel and often defies categorization.
With special guest Stellarize, an international traveller, musician and songwriter, plus one or more special appearances by local performing artists.
This release party will be held at The Mint, in the heart of Victoria. The Mint offers in a intimate setting and with exceptional drinks and a yummy menu.
