Grammy Award-winning artist Ani DiFranco is packing up her bags for a series of Australian shows next year April. She will first be performing at Sydney's State Theatre, then will head her way to The Arts Centre Melbourne. The final concert will be at the Astor Theatre, afterwhich the singer-songwriter will prepare for her Byron Bay Bluesfest 2020 set.
Widely considered a feminist icon, Ani 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.
Throughout her 30-year career, she has collaborated with the greats—from Utah Phillips to legendary R&B saxophonist Maceo Parker to Prince—and has shared stages with Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Pete Seeger, Kris Kristofferson, Greg Brown, Billy Bragg, Michael Franti, Chuck D., and many more. Her most recent album 'Binary' was released in June 2017 on Righteous Babe Records and her memoir 'No Walls' and the 'Recurring Dream' was released in May 2019 by Viking Books.
