Jill Sobules 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 Girlthe first openly gay-themed song ever to crack the Billboard Top 20and the alt-rock anthem Supermodel featured in the film Clueless. Sobule was one half of The Jill Nostalgia Kills, produced by Ben Lee and released on her own Pinko Records label. Jills 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.
