More about "PINES"
“PINES” is a cinematic musical journey mirroring YEEJ's life. The songs embody various genres such as pop, alternative, and traditional Hmong music through the exploration of Montana folk and country sounds. This is a love letter to his family, friends and culture. It will reflect on his time living in both Montana and Minnesota; the place that fostered his upbringing with the place that he found himself flourish as an artist and every bit in between.

***The Cedar Commissions is a celebrated program for local emerging artists made possible by a grant from Jerome Foundation as well as support from New Music USA. Since 2011, the Commissions have showcased new work by over 80 Minnesota-based emerging composers and musicians, including Dessa, Aby Wolf, Ritika Ganguly, Maria Isa, deVon Russell Gray, Joey Van Phillips, Gao Hong, Dameun Strange, Vie Boheme, and many more.The 2024-25 cohort of artists was selected by a diverse committee of Minnesota-based artists, industry professionals, and Cedar staff. The 6 commissioned artists each receive $5,000 to compose at least 30 minutes of new musical work to debut at The Cedar in 2025. Additionally, the cohort receives support from Cedar staff, a designated mentor of their choice, and other guest artists. This year’s cohort embodies what lies at the core of this program: an unwavering commitment to experimentation, artistic growth, and self-expression.
