About Kimmortal:
Kim Villagante (she/they), also known as Kimmortal is a queer filipinx second generation settler based on unceded, unsurrendered Coast Salish Territories also known as Vancouver, BC, Canada. Primarily known as an emcee and singer-songwriter Kimmortal takes a multi faceted approach to music. During her undergrad at ubc in Visual arts and Art History, Kim would perform at as many open mics as she could throughout the city and campus. Since then she has incorporated song, visual art, and collaborated with dancers in her poetic sets. Kimmortal is influenced by her journey learning about love, ancestry, and resistance. Some of their highlights include: being featured on CBC's show Exhibitionists, the Queer Women of Colour festival (San Francisco), Kultura FIlipino Arts Festival (Toronto), Junofest 2018 (Vancouver) SXSW (Austin, TX), and Rifflandia. Kimmortal has recently collaborated with local bipoc dance and fashion collective Immigrant Lessons in a new developing theatre/dance/music production called X marks the Movement which debuted excerpts at Push festival 2019. Kim has opened up for her favourite artists Ruby Ibarra, Saba, Shad K, and Saul Williams. Just this past year, Kimmortal's "I'm Blue" made it to top 20 music videos in the country via CBC.
