90s Icon Liz Phair

In 1993, indie darling Liz Phair was thrust into the international spotlight when her Gold-certified debut album Exile in Guyville was released to much critical acclaim. The feminist singer-songwriter's outspoken creative voice and lyrical content tackling the patriarchy in the creative industry would become a trademark in subsequent albums. 

Cutting her teeth in Chicago's underground alternative music scene in the early 90s, Phair bucked the punk trend by positively embracing her womanhood and releasing homemade tapes under the name Girlysound. Over three decades later, the guitar-toting songstress has lost none of her early vulnerability, musical instinct and Midwestern charm, returning to the stage on fine form.
