Podcast 199: Jill Fraser

Art + Music + Technology

You may not have run across Jill Fraser's name before, but you almost certainly have heard her work. With hundreds of TV commercials under her belt, as well as several feature films and a couple of tours, she's become part of the world's earworm. She's also been performing more recently - with Peter Grenader - as zZyzx Society, and even occasionally taking her gear into the desert to play for the coyotes!

Jill is part of the CalArts group that came of age in the late seventies, featuring Morton Subotnik as one of the key instructors. Moving from school almost directly into feature films as studio work has given Jill an uninterrupted line of creative work for almost four decades! Listen in while we surf Jill's Serge-driven career.

You can find out more about Jill's work, and see/hear some of her performances, by checking out her website: http://www.jillfrasermusic.com/. And if you are in LA, keep an eye out for the zZyzx Society gigs, since they combine composition, improv and modular instrumentation in a very unique way.

Enjoy!
