Jill Fiore Gives New Meaning To The Phrase ‘Working From Home’! Jill’s a guitarist who lives on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. She’s caused a good stir playing music and entertaining people outside on her fire escape! Can we all give her a giant round of applause!
Jill contracted COVID-19 in late March. She was scared she wouldn’t have the wind to sing again. “On Day 11 of my quarantine, I finally had the energy to crawl onto my fire escape — and had a feeling of relief,” said the 47-year-old. “I decided then to make my music my top priority.”
I read about Jill in the NY Post and LOVED her spirit and out of the box thinking and invited her to join me on the show.
Jill was used to playing cool NYC venues that are now closed, so she decided last Saturday, to perform a concert for an audience of 100 people who gathered below her fire escape where she lives on the second floor of a building between Grand and Hester Streets in NYC.
She sang along to her cover of “Dreams” by Fleetwood Mac and said “It was a moment of connection amongst New Yorkers.”
Jill also encouraged fans to spend some bucks local and go get some to-go drinks at nearby bars and liquor stores. She also requested they “please wear a mask or face covering.”
Jill’s ‘out of the box’ thinking is an inspiration to so many who are trying hard now to think out of their own boxes. Go Jill.
