Ani DiFranco (pronounced "AHH-nee") (born Angela Marie Difranco on September 23, 1970) is a progressive singer, guitarist, and songwriter. DiFranco is prolific, having produced three studio albums of new material and one remix album just in 1999 (see list below). She has released at least one album every year since 1990, with the exception of 2000 (perhaps because she released three albums in 1999 and a double album in 2001.)

Born in Buffalo, New York, DiFranco, the daughter of two folk music loving parents, started playing Beatles' covers at local bars with her guitar teacher at the age of nine, and built her career from there.
