Jon The Reptilian caught up with songwriter, social activist, and Grammy winner, Ani DiFranco, during her recent tour though the Bay Area for two sold out shows at The Fillmore. Tune in on Monday, February 3rd at 10am to hear the interview.
Widely considered a feminist icon, Ani DiFranco is the mother of the DIY movement, being one of the first artists to create her own record label in 1990. While she has been known as the “Little Folksinger,” her music has embraced punk, funk, hip hop, jazz, soul, electronica and even more distant sounds.
Her memoir No Walls and the Recurring Dream was a New York Times Top 10 best seller in 2019, and her debut children’s book The Knowing is out now. DiFranco recently completed a 5-month run on Broadway as ‘Persephone’ in the Tony and Grammy Award-winning Best Musical, Hadestown. Her 23rd album Unprecedented Sh!t is out now, and a second children’s book Show Up and Vote was released in August of 2024.
