About

ANI DIFRANCO IN CONCERT:

Alt-rock powerhouse and feminist icon Ani DiFranco continues to be a symbol of activism through music, pulling no punches with her socially conscious songwriting more than 20 years after her debut. At her inspiring live shows DiFranco gives it her all, delivering her unfiltered lyrics with a raw emotionalism that perfectly complements her polished guitar playing. From classics like "Shameless" to newer material like "Whose Side Are You On?", DiFranco covers a wide selection of favorites on her latest tour, never failing to have a blast in the process.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Born in Buffalo, NY, DiFranco was a precocious young talent, performing Beatles covers in local bars as early as age nine. Just a few years later she was playing original material in coffee shops, and by age 15 she had moved out of her mother's house to live in her own apartment as an emancipated minor. At age 18 she started her own record company Righteous Records, releasing her self-titled debut album on the label the following year. Over the next two decades DiFranco released a new album nearly every year, touring extensively and earning several Grammy nominations including a Best Contemporary Folk Album nod for 2000's Fellow Workers. Back on the road for her latest tour, the ever-prolific talent will treat fans to never-before-heard material from her upcoming album.

FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:

"Ani Difranco's performance was truly unforgettable. She changed guitars for every song and even changed some of the acoustics for a few songs. Her voice was even better live!"

"She plays so hard and with such precision. It's like watching the Cirque du Soleil, you see it with your own eyes and you still wonder if it's possible. She's so ceaselessly generous and friendly."

"Her vocals and energy are off the charts. She's funny, engaging and smart. We had a great time. A good mix of the old classics and a couple of brand new ones."

    Love it! Great sound, lyrics, atmosphere and the venue!

    by H. W. on 2023-05-29The Danforth Music Hall - Toronto

    Put it simply, I loved my experience at this concert and the venue is spacious enough at the ground-level so audiences and keep distance from one another and still have a great view at the same time. My recommendation for this concert venue is to place a few long benches for audiences to sit at both sides of the stage and at back, against surrounding walls. It will create a little comforts for standup publics.

    The Best!

    by NancyfromToronto on 2022-11-10The Danforth Music Hall - Toronto

    Ani and the Righteous Babes are amazingly good! Unfortunately the sound was muddy and the venue they performed in lacks good acoustics. Hopefully they will play Massey Hall next time!

    Too bad about the sound...

    by FJB on 2022-11-10The Danforth Music Hall - Toronto

    I'm a long term Ani fan. I'm not a Toronto resident so had never been to Danforth Music Hall before, but I generally love these smaller venues. So although I was near the back I was really looking forward to this concert. It was a real disappointment that the sound was so bad. The room has a standing wave problem that was triggered by the drums and bass. This masked the rest of the sound so I couldn't even hear the lyrics (a large part of Ani's appeal). Maybe the sound was better elsewhere (like at the mixing board) but whoever was in charge should have checked the sound everywhere prior to the show. Sadly, I won't be in a hurry to return to this venue.

    Brilliance

    by Shane on 2022-11-10The Danforth Music Hall - Toronto

    Ani is one of those artists that sounds great on her records and then is even better live. Her supporting acts., artists from her label, were all great. The ONLY thing that I would complain about is that raked floor at the Danforth Music Hall. Standing on that for 3 hours will give anyone lower back pain. It’s not an ergonomically mindful situation.

    Always a great show!

    by Shaemus on 2022-11-10The Danforth Music Hall - Toronto

    I had such a great time. Ani Difranco is absolutely amazing and I only wish she played in Toronto more often! The Rightgeous Babe Revue was a fantastic surprise! Their set was phenomenal! The Danforth Music Hall itself could use some improvements and is in need of repairs, but it didn’t really affect how much I enjoyed the show! Ani is the best!!
