Indi icon Ani DiFranco is coming to the Ives Concert Park WCSU Westside campus in Danbury.
Indie
music icon Ani DiFranco knows no boundaries. From founding her
independent record label, Righteous Babe, to addressing her pure,
sincere emotions in every lyric and chord, the grassroots
singer/songwriter has built both mainstream and cult followings. Now
The Ridgefield Playhouse and Premier Concerts are presenting her at The
Ives Concert Park Union Savings Bank Summer Concert Series on Tuesday,
July 15 at 8 p.m. (gates open at 6 p.m.) at the venue on the Western
Connecticut State University Westside campus in Danbury. Kimya Dawson,
whose music has most recently been heard on the movie "Juno"
soundtrack, will be opening the show.
Ani DiFranco's innovative guitar style, signature
percussive fingerpicking, expressive vocals and incisive lyrics-along
with a constitutional inability to be anything less than totally
real-have earned her a loyal dedicated fan base. Her latest album,
"Canon," contains songs spanning the years 1990-2006 and is one of 19
albums, including "Reprieve," a collection of her, as Entertainment
Weekly said, "beautifully committed music."
However, there is no substitute of a DiFranco live performance.
For tickets ($79.50/$54.50/$44.50 and $24.50 {lawn}) go to www.ridgefieldplayhouse.org. or ticketmaster.com or charge by phone at (203)368-1000 or (860)525-4500.
