Homage to Janis Ian

Ruth Apelt and The Marvellous celebrate the brilliance of Janis Ian’s multiple-Grammy-winning 1975 album, Between The Lines – with its timeless anthem: At Seventeen. With a Cabaret edge, we journey through these extraordinary songs of loss, remembering and insight - woven around the artist's inspiring and little known story.

Janis Ian : trailblazing female singer/songwriter/, 21 albums, 6 decades career  (1965 - recently retired), child prodigy, famous and infamous STAR, Grammy-winner, LGBTQ+ icon, survivor, Activist.

Ruth Apelt : Brisbane singer/songwriter/guitarist - supported Janis Ian on tour in 1994, now paying homage in this premiere performance with The Marvellous collaborators: Helen Russell (double bass, vocals), Eugenie Costello (violin, vocals), and Karen McLeod (keyboard).
