Aluron

Burlington, VT, USA

Aluron is the solo project of Lillie Gutoff. She attended Mt. Holyoke College and loved learning but went on medical leave her second year due to depression, mania, and schizoaffective symptoms. After multiple involuntary hospitalizations, she ended up at a long-term residential treatment facility in VT. During her transition out of the program, she started taking classes at Community College and learned how to use Audacity. At the start of the pandemic, she had all the alone-time in the world to compose music. She loves being isolated in order to make art, but finds it hard to be an outstanding citizen that way.
