Jill Sobule presents: Songs from F*uck 7th Grade & more
A Pride Month event

“Jill Sobule can claim her place among the stellar New York singer-songwriters of the last decade. Topical, funny and more than a little poignant …grown-up music for an adolescent age.” –New York Times
Jill Sobule’s work is at once deeply personal and socially conscious, seriously funny and derisively tragic. In a dozen albums spanning three decades of recording, the Denver-born songwriter/guitarist/singer has tackled such topics as the death penalty, anorexia nervosa, shoplifting, reproduction, the French Resistance, adolescent malaise, LGBTQ issues, and the Christian Right. Her hits include “I Kissed A Girl”—the first openly gay-themed song ever to crack the Billboard Top 20—and the alt-rock anthem “Supermodel” featured in the film Clueless.
Jill’s latest project is her New York Times Critics pick, Drama Desk nominated autobiographical musical F*ck 7th Grade which premiered at the Wild Project in 2022. A cast recording will be released on May 2nd.
