about

\Ani DiFranco is celebrating the 25th Anniversary of her seminal first live album 'Living In Clip' with offering a 25th anniversary, remastered edition of the landmark double album (vinyl + cd + digital formats). This marks the first time the breakthrough recording will be available on vinyl (3 LPs), which includes a new album cover and never previously seen photos of Ani, her band and crew from that era. Twenty-five years later the album is recognized as a point of entry that radically expanded DiFranco’s audience, and a historically important testament to the relationship between Ani as a live performer and the devoted community she created with her fans.

Affectionately named after the state of stage amps about to blow out, 'Living In Clip' was originally recorded from performances in nearly two-dozen venues from 1995-1996 (around the release of Dilate), offering the intimacy and power of a live show with over two hours of music including intermission and encore. Originally released on April 22, 1997, the album features DiFranco, Andy Stochansky on drums and Sara Lee on bass (Gang of Four, B-52s, Indigo Girls).

About 'Living In Clip,' DiFranco notes, “you don’t know when you are making a thing if it is a good thing or a not-so-good thing. you don’t know if it will connect with people and have meaning for them or if it will only have meaning for you, in the end. while i am being creative, i try to worry about my score as little as possible (as judging can get in the way of doing) but after the fact, of course, it all becomes clear. i have come to understand that living in clip connected with a lot of people, that it opened doors for me and radically expanded my audience. it was a record that served as an entry point for so many, into my life and work, and so i am very grateful that i made it. i am grateful to all the people who helped me, especially my man goat. it was an odd move to make- to put out a double live album just as my star was rising and my studio recordings were only just beginning to find distribution, but as with much of my life, some of my oddest moves have been the best ones. i love living in clip because, in all its looseness, it feels accurate. it feels native to the place i come from and the place where i basically still live. i don’t know what that place is called but, starting around the time of this release, i knew i was not alone there.”
