Topical, funny and more than a little poignant grown-up music for an adolescent age." - New York Times. Jill Sobule's songs are at once deeply personal and socially conscious, seriously funny and derisively tragic. Over five albums and a decade of recording, including the hit singles "I Kissed A Girl" and "Supermodel," the Denver-born songwriter/ guitarist/singer has tackled such topics as the death penalty, anorexia, shoplifting, reproduction, the French resistance movement, adolescence, and the Christian right. Did we mention love? Love found, love lost, love wished for and love taken away. While her songs cover a huge amount of ground, they all have benefit greatly from Jill's subtle intelligence and skillful light-handedness. No sloganeering flag-and-fist waving here, but rather story songs about human beings, real and imagined, which allow us to step back from the issue, be it personal or social, and relate to it as we would a close friend.
