Following up her 2018 album Metaphora, which featured the #1 hit song ‘Girl’s Gotta Do,” her breakthrough jazz album Chances was certified Gold for 40,000 copies sold in Canada. Jill’s work has earned her awards, such as the Sirius XM Jazz Artist of the Year and the East Coast Music Award for Album of the Year, and scores of fans, including Blue Rodeo, Ron Sexsmith, and Kris Kristofferson, who called Jill “a real songwriter, and a damn good songwriter.”
Her evocative and timeless songs have been featured in film and TV, scoring shows such as "Orange Is The New Black," "The L Word," and "Heartland," as well as powering a global advertising campaign for Chrysler with the track ‘Never Quit Loving You.’
An unforgettable, enchanting performer, Jill has headlined iconic venues such as Toronto’s Massey Hall and Roy Thompson Hall, Ottawa’s National Arts Centre, Vancouver’s Vogue Theatre and Tokyo’s Blue Note and Cotton Club, and captivated audiences across the globe in Japan, Europe, Australia, Mexico, South America, the USA and the Middle East.
