Mary Timony Tickets

For more than 30 years, singer-songwriter and guitar hero Mary Timony has cut a distinctive path through the world of independent music, most recently as vocalist and guitarist of acclaimed garage-pop power trio Ex Hex (Merge) but also as a member of seminal post-punk band Autoclave (Dischord), celebrated leader of the deeply influential Helium (Matador), multifaceted solo artist (Matador, Lookout!, Kill Rock Stars), and a co-founder of supergroup Wild Flag (Merge). Described by Sleater-Kinney�s Carrie Brownstein as �Mary Shelley with a guitar� and dubbed �a trailblazer and an innovator� by [Mary�s former guitar student] Lindsey Jordan a.k.a. Snail Mail, Timony has distinguished herself as one of her generation�s most influential guitarists and songwriters. Although she has remained a cult hero and critical favorite since the early �90s, appearing everywhere from 120 Minutes episodes to Coachella sets, Timony�s many triumphs have long been counterbalanced by crippling doubt and self-nullification.
Her fifth solo album, Untame the Tiger, approaches these emotions head on. Her first solo release in 15 years is a startling document of an artist fully coming into her own power during the fourth decade of her career. It is the product of lessons learned during life-altering struggle.
