Comments: Jason Billows got a magic kit from an uncle when he was a kid, but it wasn’t until he got to university that the idea of becoming a street performer really entered his mind. He got his start as a solo, then partnered up in the Screaming Beavers duo, and eventually took everything he’d learned as a performer and applied it to a career as as a producer. It’s a bumpy journey at times and one that’s filled with Stories from the Pitch.
