ivy room presentsFRIDAY APRIL 12TH—TRACY BONHAMJILL SOBULEand special guestKATIE CASH—Doors 7pm /Show 8pm$20 Advance / $25 Door(limited vip booth/seating available: email [email protected])—IVY ROOM860 San Pablo Avenue, Albany • 21+TRACY BONHAM(website / spotify / facebook / instagram)—Two-time GRAMMY® nominee Tracy Bonham is a classically trained violinist, pianist, and vocalist turned alt-rock singer-songwriter.Bonham’s debut, The Burdens of Being Upright (Island Records), achieved Gold Record status in 1996 spawning the chart-topping hit “Mother Mother” which has remained a powerful anthem for disenfranchised youth all over the world.JILL SOBULE(website / spotify / facebook / instagram)—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”. Sobule was one half of The Jill & Julia Show, providing music while actor Julia Sweeney contributes storytelling. Jill is considered a pioneer in crowdfunding and is constantly exploring and creating new models for artists in an ever-changing music industry. Her latest record is “Nostalgia Kills”, produced by Ben Lee and released on her own Pinko Records label. Jill’s theater credits include a musical adaptation of the Broadway classic “Yentl”, “Prozak and the Platypus”, and “Times Square”. Her latest, “F*ck 7th Grade”, was postponed due to Covid, but was performed and filmed for three days at a make-shift drive-in over the Summer. The musical is a finalist for the Lambda Literary awards in LGBTQ Drama category this June.“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 TimesKATIE CASH(website / spotify / facebook / instagram)—Katie Cash has been a rock n' roll staple in the Bay Area for over 25 years, sharing stages with Iggy and The Stooges, LP, Detroit Cobras, Cris Williamson, JD Samson, Bitch! and many more.
