Anna Hillburg

Anna Hillburg has spent several years making music in the Bay Area. As a singer, songwriter, trumpet, guitar, drum, and bass player she has contributed to acts such as Shannon and The Clams, The Dodos, The Moore Brothers, Will Sprott, Dream Date, Greg Ashley, Shannon Shaw and her All Star Buddy Band, and more. She spent her teenage years playing with the All American Band at Knott’s Berry Farm in Buena Park, California. Hillburg graduated from the highly selective Los Angeles County High School for the Arts where she was awarded the Lew and Edie Wasserman Award as the school’s top instrumentalist. After graduating she came to the Bay Area to study music at UC Berkeley, where she was a member of the University’s symphony. She spent her 20’s and early 30’s touring with several different bands in the US and Europe before becoming a music teacher to students of all ages. After her 2013 self titled album, Hillburg went on to release “Really Real” in 2018, gaining even more accreditation and praise a songwriter on her own. She has once again joined Bay Area members of Extra Classic, The Dodos, Yea-Ming and the Rumours, and Chime School to release her third solo album, ironically entitled “Tired Girls.”
