Fiona Apple is an American singer-songwriter and pianist whose intensely personal writing and unconventional arrangements have made her one of alternative pop’s most distinctive voices. Born in New York, she broke through as a teenager with the 1996 album Tidal and its single “Criminal.” When the Pawn..., Extraordinary Machine, The Idler Wheel... and Fetch the Bolt Cutters each pushed her music further toward jazz, art pop, percussion-heavy experimentation and raw emotional directness. Her relatively small catalog has had an outsized influence on generations of singer-songwriters.
