For the love of Ani

There’s a great little tribute happening in Halifax this week.

On Wednesday, the Company House will give room for artists such as Kev Corbett, Ruth Minnikin and Julia Feltham to come together and sing some of their favourite Ani DiFranco tunes. The event is a part of International Women’s Day and is in support of Bryony House, a shelter for abused women. Tickets are $15 each.

To get you in the mood, here are some Ani videos.

Journalist, writer, blogger, producer.
