JILL SOLBULE

During her three decade career, Jill Sobule has released a dozen albums, tackling topics as varied as the death penalty, anorexia, LGBTQ issues, adolescent malaise, and the Christian Right, with her wit and aplomb.

The Denver-born singer/songwriter's work is deeply personal, socially conscious, and seriously funny. Sobule's portrait-and-story songs reflect her subtle intelligence and skillful light-handedness.

Jill Sobule’s career began in 1990 with the album Things Here Are Different (MCA), featuring the single “Too Cool To Fall In Love.” Her 1995 self-titled album (Atlantic) brought commercial and critical success with two hit singles: “Supermodel” from the movie Clueless and “I Kissed A Girl” (the original), the first openly queer-themed record to break the Billboard Top 20.

With her most recent album, Nostalgia Kills, Jill turns her warm wit and laser-focused poet’s eye on herself, exploring awkward youth and grown-up regrets.

Sobule has performed with many musical artists including Neil Young and Cyndi Lauper just to name a few. She regularly co-stars with SNL alum Julia Sweeney in their Jill & Julia Show.

Jill’s latest project is an autobiographical show titled F*ck 7th Grade! which premiered Off-Off Broadway in 2022 to rave reviews and was featured as a New York Times Critics' Pick.

CONNIE ROUSE

As a child growing up in Chicago, Illinois, Connie Rouse pretended to be a famous singer. One of her fondest memories is of her parents asking her to sing for relatives and friends.

The songstress attributes her love of song to her grandmother whom she says had the voice of an angel and a melody in her heart.

Connie's vocals are bathed in smoky, sultry undertones and brimming with fire and intensity. She has performed her vocal stylings at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, the Carpenter Performing Arts Center, the Orange County Performing Arts Center, the Disneyland Hotel, and Ralph Brennan’s Jazz Kitchen.

When she's not singing, Connie most enjoys sharing time with her family, being bossed around by her adorable dogs, relishing nature and the outdoors.
