Hillary Bonhomme is a performer and composer based in Brooklyn, New York. She is currently working on a solo ep, a concept piece of vocal theatre for ensemble, and graphic notations for her compositions. Inspired by solo performance, she has been most influenced by Nina Simone, Meredith Monk, and Beverly Glenn-Copeland.

She enjoys collaborations with choreographers, filmmakers, and podcasts. She aims to use music as a 'third space' and social cavern in a divided world. Hillary has participated in residencies in the US and abroad. She was a recipient of the Pablo Vela Memorial Scholarship, which enabled her to participate in the Meredith Monk Vocal Ensemble Program, developing her skills in experimental composing styles and her interest in cultivating community through music. Based in New York’s thriving arts and culture scene, she often opts to present her work in spaces not catered to live music. She has been a featured act in art exhibitions, theatre festivals, and city gardens.

As a singer and multi-instrumentalist, her original compositions are currently being performed solo with looping, vocal fx, synths, keys, hand drums, and guitar. However, she is cultivating her own ensemble with singers and instrumentalists with performances scheduled for 2026. Inquiries can be sent to hillary.m4a (at) gmail.com
