Hilz is a Meanjin-based singer-songwriter who has been making music for longer than she can remember.

After a long stint in musical theatre (most recently including a 2022 national tour of Shake & Stir’s Jane Eyre, understudying Sarah McLeod of the Superjesus), in 2022 Hilz made the decision to finally take the plunge into releasing original music.

Her debut single ‘Circles’ was released last September, and was described as “an incredible track…a lush pop song, with jazz elements that gives the song a dreamy feel” (Laura Hughes, formerly of Happy Mag). Working alongside local producers Levi Russell and Adrian Carroll, Hilz’ follow-up track ‘All I Ever Wanted’ dropped in May 2023.

Her much-awaited debut EP 'Lie In Grey', explores the grey area of relationships and all the feels attached to living in limbo. Hilz continues to perform in some of Brisbane's hottest locations, including The Brightside, Tomcat, and The Cave Inn.

She writes alongside her brother, Al (keyboard/bass) and they are supported live by Gabe (guitar) and Will (drums).

Between them, the group have decades of performance experience and have played in venues all over Brisbane, including the Tivoli, Lefty’s Music Hall, Bloodhound Bar and the Powerhouse.

Hilz’ sound is a fresh and modern take on pop, taking inspiration from contemporary greats like Kimbra, Maggie Rogers and HAIM.
