Jillith Fair - Loving Jill Sobule Jill Sobule’s work was 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 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 Girl”—the first openly gay-themed song ever to crack the Billboard Top 20—and the alt-rock anthem “Supermodel” featured in the film Clueless. Sobule was one half of The Jill & Julia Show, providing music while actor Julia Sweeney contributed storytelling. Jill was considered a pioneer in crowdfunding and constantly explored and creating new models for artists in an ever-changing music industry. Jill’s latest record, F*ck 7th Grade - Original Cast Recording was released on her own Pinko Records label on June 6th, 2025 - digital only (a physical release will get scheduled as soon as her estate is out of probate hell). Her theater credits included a musical adaptation of the Broadway classic Yentl, Prozak and the Platypus, and Times Square. In November of 2019 Jill sang a song as herself on an episode of the Simpsons. F*ck 7th Grade ran off-Broadway for four (4) runs in three (3) years and gained a New York Times Critics Pick. Drama Desk nominated this autobiographical musical, which premiered at the Wild Project in 2022; had a reboot in the Winter of 2023 - and ran again for three weeks in 2024. Also on June 6th of 2025, Rhino Records released her self-titled Atlantic Records album on red vinyl for the first time - to time with Pride Month! Last year marks the album’s 30th Anniversary! Universal also released the Clueless soundtrack on vinyl for the first time last year too. Following her untimely demise on May 1st, many of her previously scheduled shows morphed into Jillith Fair - Loving Jill Sobule shows, benefiting the new Jill Sobule Legacy Foundation. Funds will be distributed by this foundation to the ACLU and other causes Jill cared deeply about, as well as to help fund re-issues, the release of material from Jill’s vaults, and a tribute album set for release Jan 1th, 2027. The hope is that these “Jillith” shows will become annual events during her birthday month (January 16th was her birthday) & during Pride Month in the future. We hope to help keep her spirit, memory, & music alive. “Jill Sobule can claim her place among the stellar New York singer-songwriters of the last decade. Topical, funny and more than a little poignant …grown-up music for an adolescent age.” - The New York Times
