Sobule Spottings
February 9, 2008
Jill Sobule has recently garnered some well-earned pixels.
- Amy Rigby, who is blogging again, described Jill as one of the best performers I’ve seen out there.
- Stereogum had an “I Kissed A Girl” video hangover.
- Jill herself wrote about the forthcoming cover album, Cinnamon Girl – Women Artists Cover Neil Young.
- Marc-Anthony Macon wrote an appreciation of Jill’s work that is as splendid as his name.
Here’s a quote from the latter. I particularly like the way it could apply almost as much to Amy Rigby as to Jill Solbule. “The funny thing about Jill’s humorous songs is that they’re generally not so much funny as they are honest, and unaccustomed to hearing such honesty in song, we respond with giggles.”
