Page 1 Theatre‘s OutFest music stage features Pillow Fite and Freya Milliken at The Carleton on Sunday, April 27th. Show time is 7 PM. Early Bird tickets are $20 and available through the festival HERE until March 16th and $25 general admission after that.
Pillow Fite – Art Ross (they/them) and Aaron Green (he/him) come from disparate backgrounds and musical forms, meeting in the middle to comprise a band that’s tender and fierce, exuberant and gentle.
Green—a veteran of the Halifax rock scene, the guitar anchor of Floodland and Hello Delaware—and Ross—a trans songwriter with an acoustic guitar—started writing songs together over text, by accident. Pillow Fite emerged publicly at the start of 2021 with its non-binary gender-subverting aesthetics already in place and a languid lead single in “Playing the Fool.”
Freya Milliken is a musician, songwriter, and performer based in the Annapolis Valley who has been working in music full-time for the last two years. In May 2023, she received her Bachelor of Music degree at Acadia University and released her debut EP, “Wholeheartedly,” the following November. Freya has played at many music festivals across the East Coast, including Paddlefest, Lunenburg Folk Harbour Festival, and Deep Roots Music Festival, among others.
