HEATHER HILL
ABOUT
"SOUL-STIRRING AND LIFE-AFFIRMING
MUSIC THAT TRANSCENDS AND UPLIFTS."
TINNITIST
The naturally beautiful, soul-stirring enclave of Blue Mountains, Ontario is where accomplished pianist, vocalist and published songwriter Heather Hill spends the majority of her time these days. She breathes in the crisp, clear days and sensory-peaking surroundings on the shores of Georgian Bay and then, looking out from her piano room window on to an enchanting forest grove, breathes it all back out in moving and inspiring songs. Heather writes heartfelt stories, sings with soaring vocals, and plays haunting piano melodies. Her songs come from her soul’s longing to spread love and peace in the world, and a life and career that have taken her from Toronto to New York City, back to Toronto and now, to the rural Ontario paradise she and her family call home.
​
Over the years Heather's songs have showcased the stories of her life and the rich learnings put to music. Her last three albums “Listen” (NYC, 2005), “Leuty Station" (Toronto, 2012), "We are the Same" (Toronto, 2022), all reveal her gifts and passions as a peacekeeper, mother, intuitive and entrepreneur. Her latest album "Twilight Mist" steps deeper into her rich spiritual life as a musician, intuitive and helper. "Twilight Mist", released February 29th, 2024, showcases inspirational, etheric and faerie-like songs and enchanted musical journeys. This album was written in her prayerful, meditative and creative space in the forest. The title track “Twilight Mist” captures Hill’s curiosity as she crosses over the bridge at twilight from the earth plane into the mist of the unknown.

Heather has also led the Toronto Songwriting Guild for the past 16 years – a group of 10-15 professional songwriters across Canada who are working on their song craft and sharing their talents. Additionally, she’s a member of One Fire Movement - a grassroots group of artists spreading peace through their art and activism.
