Jac Høja is a classically-trained cellist, producer, DJ, and vocalist with an immersive sound that oscillates between cinematic soundscapes and dynamic dancefloor rhythms.

 

Hailing from the musically rich landscape of Chicago, Jac's expression is deeply rooted in a fusion of contemporary classical, hip-hop, jazz, and house. Her formative years were highlighted by notable collaborations and performances with groups like A Billion Young, THEMpeople, and Rich Jones, which honed her eclectic musical style.

 

In 2020, Jac launched Jacqui Mateo, a dance music project co-created with her partner Matthew McClone. As a duo they’ve had the opportunity to play around the world from Berlin to Burning Man, performing alongside artists such as Lee Burridge, Jimi Jules, and Satori.

 

At the heart of Jac's artistic journey is her passion for crafting transformative and immersive experiences. She delves into this through a variety of expressions: composing soundscapes for fashion films, guiding sound meditations at events like Burning Man and Yoon, and electrifying dance floors with her high-energy club mixes. In each endeavor, Jac’s music becomes an invitation to fully engage with the present moment and explore its depths.
