Liz Phair

Liz Phair broke through in the early nineties with Exile in Guyville, an album that answered the Rolling Stones song for song and became a landmark of indie rock songwriting. Her lyrics mix blunt honesty with sharp melodic instincts, and she has kept making records that push against expectations of what a singer-songwriter is supposed to sound like.

She plays Fillmore Auditorium in Denver on her upcoming Colorado date, a chance to hear songs that shaped a generation of guitar-driven songwriting performed by the artist who wrote them.
