ABOUT CIVILITY STINT

align="center" profilepic align="center"

All J Pollock wanted when she was a child was to quit taking piano lessons. A solo and independent artist from Orange County, California, the woman behind Civility Stint has loved music since she was a child, amateurly writing her own songs since she was 9 years old, strumming on the open strings of her sibling’s guitar. Baptized and raised in Catholic school*, she joined youth choir at age 10, and she participated in her parish’s choir intermittently until age 18. While in high school, she became a multi-instrumentalist, rekindling her love for piano as well as becoming proficient in guitar and bass. J was even part of reviving her school’s handbell ensemble. CS has spent the last decade of her life performing, and she hopes to make a career out of it.
J is also a music producer; she began by using Garageband on her sibling’s laptop to make short loops at the age of 13. Since 2021, she has been creating songs with Logic Pro, learning everything she knows about recording and music writing and production independently. She strives to have her presence and platform as an artist, creator, and activist open doors and create opportunities for those underserved and marginalized within music and beyond.

You are humbly invited to join CS as she makes moves toward pursuing her passion of music and artistry professionally. Thank you for listening. <3 - J

*Although her backstory is heavily religiously involved, Civility Stint declares no religious affiliation and is not currently an active participant in any Church.
