On June 14th, four of Los Angeles’ largest promotion companies will join forces to host “Illuminate”, an album fundraiser party for electronic crossover artist, Maki Hsieh's highly-anticipated debut album “Illuminate”.  (Tickets)

Fusing her skills as a fierce violinist and genre-defying vocalist with a nine language, three-octave operatic range, Maki Hsieh weaves her way through electronic beats to forge a truly unique contemporary soundscape. Remarkably, Maki was born mostly deaf and lives largely in a world of vibrations.  Her album “Illuminate”, is a collaborative effort with multiple electronic producers. The first single off the album will be released in July, a second single in August, with the full album release set for October 2014.

Promoters "The Cruz Coalition," "The Good Vibe," "ROAM Creative," and "BurnLA" are hosting the fundraising event at Lot 613, providing their unique flavor to the event, which will resemble the conscious, transformational movement made popular by festivals like Lightning in a Bottle and Burning Man.

There will be two dueling stages, one dubstep and the other house music, featuring producers who worked on Maki's album. Maki will perform with many of the performers throughout the night including headliners Ill-esha, Stephan Jacobs, Shawna, and many more.

In between the two stages, an artisan outdoor courtyard will feature eight live painters and 15 artists showcasing innovative creations including light sculptures, photography, flow art and jewelry.

Lot 613 is located at 613 Imperial Street in Los Angeles. Pre-sale tickets are $15 or $20 at the website http://illuminate-fundraiser.eventbrite.com and $25 if purchased at the door.
