Celebrating Fiona Apple at 48
F
iona Apple was born on September 13, 1977. Since then she has been reshaping what honesty in music sounds like. Across five albums she has given us songs that ache, rage, and reach impossible depths.
She was only eighteen when she recorded Tidal, and it was already clear she was going to do things her own way. From the raw pull of “Criminal” to the layered poetry of When the Pawn and the fearless experiments of Fetch the Bolt Cutters, her music has never been about fitting into a box. It has always been about breaking it open.
A few moments to revisit today:
Happy birthday, Fiona. Thank you for music that still feels like a lifeline.
