EXPERIENCE

Jessica Moss has been a fixture of Montréal’s experimental music landscape since the early 2000s, as a member of agit-punk band Thee Silver Mt. Zion and co-founder of avant-Klezmer group Black Ox Orkestar, alongside countless collaborations in performance and on recordings with the likes of Feist, Vic Chesnutt, Patti Smith, William Basinksi, Carla Bozulich, Jim White, BIG|BRAVE, and GAS. Her focus on solo work over the past decade has yielded five albums on hometown label Constellation, with an electroacoustic palette and compositional approach shaped by durational live performance, real-time signal processing, semi-improvisation, and a deep commitment to the ritualistic space of shared listening and experience. Most recently, as a core member of the Montréal chapter of Musicians For Palestine, she co-organized and played several benefit shows, and released the solo album For UNRWA in spring 2024 (garnering over 800 supporters and raising thousands of dollars).
