Singer/songwriter/activist, Ani DiFranco feels her songs reflect the connection of her personal life with what’s going on in the world around her. As Ani was coming out of years of dealing with marital problems, she saw the same problems throughout the country, people suffering from a breakdown of communication, loss of empathy and connection.
Her latest CD, Revolutionary Love, addresses these issues and challenges the listener--as she puts it--to find it within ourselves to stay curious about our opponents, instead of shutting down.
Ani has collaborated with everyone from Maceo Parker to Prince and is also a passionate jazz fan. She brings all these influences together in Revolutionary Love, as well as her appealing to our better selves.
