emotional house music✨

It is only fitting that alissa.jo planted her roots in the city of Chicago, the birthplace of house music. To her the genre epitomizes the essence of feeling—DJs guide each fan through their own unique experiences with the power of sound. Detroit's underground music scene apprised alissa.jo of this movement, coaxing her to experiment with a deeper and sexier sound in the trenches of the Windy City.

From the beginning, it has been the house music maven's mission to upend convention, sewing together her signature brand: ethereal, soulful, and groovy. Borrowing from a broad selection of styles scored alissa.jo late-night gigs at The MID & Spybar in Chicago, Sound Night Club in Los Angeles, and Space in Miami. It also slotted her as a house DJ with an approachable aesthetic and opened doors for her to play Internationally in Thailand, Mexico, and Jamaica.

alissa.jo has played alongside many big names in the house music scene- Sam Feldt, Klingande, Nora En Pure, Claptone, Lee Foss, ANDHIM, and Thomas Jack. It's no secret that alissa.jo is your perfect addition to your melodic house music bill. 

One of alissa.jo’s most memorable events to date was playing at Chicago's Mamby Beach Festival in 2015 where she used electronic music to guide yogis through a breathtaking spiritual practice. The experience inspired alissa.jo to create her own company Deep House Yoga. Starting with monthly residencies in Ann Arbor, and Detroit, Michigan, the brand quickly expanded West to Spy Bar in Chicago and Sound Nightclub in Hollywood, CA.

Deep House Yoga was a headlining yoga presenter at Oregon Eclipse Festival produced by Symbiosis, and also presented at the magical Lighting in a Bottle Festival in California.

Raised on the South Side of Chicago, Vic rose to public awareness as a member of the eclectic hip-hop band Kids These Days and founder of the Chicago collective SAVEMONEY alongside Chance The Rapper and other local upstarts Joey Purp and Peter CottonTale. His solo debut mixtape INNANETAPE dropped in 2013, igniting immediate accolades (including a spot on the XXL Freshman cover in 2014), and a fortuitous introduction to Jay Z that led to a record deal with Roc Nation. Mensa went on to help Kanye West pen his esoteric song “Wolves” from The Life of Pablo, drop three critically acclaimed EPs (2016’s There’s A Lot Going On, 2018’s Hooligans, and 2020’s V TAPE) and his debut full length The Autobiography (2017), as well as furthering social causes in his hometown through his nonprofit SAVEMONEYSAVELIFE. In both music and his social activism, Vic challenges the American system responsible for a history of overcriminalization, racial injustice, and issues that affect the lives of people in underserved communities, while showcasing profound levels of consciousness and self-reflection.
