Resavoir is the creative outlet of Chicago musician, composer, and producer Will Miller, a jazz trumpeter trained through Chicago Public Schools and the Oberlin Conservatory. His horn and writing have appeared on records by Chance The Rapper, Lil Wayne, and Mac Miller, and he spent several years in the indie band Whitney. Since 2016 he has leaned into full-scale production, weaving synths, pianos, live and programmed drums, and a MIDI-assisted trumpet into a cinematic blend of soul and jazz shaped by hip hop, a sound heard in collaborations with Eryn Allen Kane, Whitney, Knox Fortune, and on SZA’s SOS, which led the Billboard 200 for ten weeks. Resavoir’s debut album arrived in 2019 to strong acclaim, including an 8.2 from Pitchfork. That same year the live ensemble, featuring Akenya and Sen Morimoto among others, made its London debut at the inaugural Boiler Room Festival, then recorded at Total Refreshment Studios, yielding a version of Charles Tolliver’s Plight released by Blue Note on the Transmissions from Total Refreshment Centre compilation. After extensive studio work during the pandemic and a 2022 tour with Whitney, Miller unveiled a second self-titled Resavoir album in 2023, a refined studio statement featuring contributors such as Elton Aura, Whitney, Akenya, Matt Gold, Eddie Burns, Lane Beckstrom, Jeremy Cunningham, Irvin Pierce, Macie Stewart, and Peter Manheim. In 2024 the project shared new singles including Life Before, a Knox Fortune remix of Future, and a live in studio take on Love Theme from Spartacus, and closed the year with Orchestra Resavoir at Thalia Hall, expanding the music for an 18-piece philharmonic.

This storytelling walk explores the historic heart of Los Angeles, highlighting haunted lore and unsettling chapters tied to the old Pueblo as it grew from a dusty settlement into a major city. The route visits burial grounds, landmarks, and places where tragedy left lingering tales of restless spirits. Highlights include the Campo Santo by the Placita Church, once a Catholic cemetery for many Indigenous people and early immigrants, with accounts of remains disturbed by later development and an unmarked lot nearby. On Fort Moore Hill, hear about the original Protestant cemetery that was built over without removing the dead and how the site later housed schools and offices before becoming home to the Grand Performing Arts High School. The walk also notes the Old Jewish Cemetery and Old Calvary Cemetery near Chavez Ravine, both largely overtaken by subsequent construction. Within the Pueblo, the Avila Adobe is presented as the city’s oldest surviving residence, a onetime home, hotel, and temporary quarters for U.S. troops, where reports describe the sorrowful presence of Encarnacion Avila, often heard crying and sometimes seen as a figure in a rocking chair on the porch. Nearby, Pico House, the grand hotel created by Pio Pico, is cited for unexplained footsteps and doors found ajar, a reputation intertwined with the former governor’s dramatic rise and fall. The route also visits the site of the Chinese Massacre, where a mob attacked, robbed, and killed residents of Chinatown, and where lingering apparitions are said to haunt a dark alley. At Pelaconi House, the oldest brick structure in the county and now home to La Golondrina Restaurant on Olvera Street, stories focus on La Consuela, known as The Mistress, who has been sighted on the front stairwell.
