Paramount Theatre Plays Ani DiFranco

Paramount Theatre, Aurora will play Ani DiFranco on Sunday, September 13, 2009, at 7:00 pm.

She's a mix between indie and alternative contemporary folk, infused with a touch of urban folk music. She's a name "twenty-somethings" will know, and our pick of the season to reach out and expand our fare of entertainment.

Ani DiFranco has written hundreds of songs, played thousands of shows, and captured the imaginations of legions of followers jammed with folkies, orchestras, rappers, rock and roll hall-of-famers, jazz musicians, poets, pop superstars, storytellers and a martial arts legend.

Since Ani bucked the major label system in the early-90s, opting to release her music on her own terms, the self-described Little Folksinger has been the subject of all kinds of hyperbole. She's been called "fiercely independent" (Rolling Stone), "inspirational" (All Music Guide) "and the ultimate do-it-yourself songwriter." (The New York Times) -- www.paramountarts.com
