Angie Heaton

Angie Heaton is an Illinois singer-songwriter and former member of Corndolly, Tractor Kings, and Liquorette (with Fiery Furnaces Matt). Angie has released 4 albums for the Parasol Label Group: two albums (Calamities And Restitution from 1996 and Sparkle from 1998) on Parasol local music imprint Mud Records. In 2004 she released Let It Ride on Parasol Records. In 2007 she has released a country album, entitled The Rumor Mill, on Parasol's Americana imprint Spur Records. Angie's music is a kaleidoscope of influences, her albums lovingly assembled scrapbooks filled with torn pages from yearbooks and journals, concert tickets worn down from the washing machine, dog-eared photos of backyard parties and summer vacations. Every song Angie writes is a love letter that never got mailed, a list of hopeful New Year's resolutions, diary-personal, fragile, beautiful, and real. Angie's songs are about crushes and death, and being crushed to death...

MAGNET: "Anyone who can write pop songs, rave-up ballads, and dirges as well as Heaton doesn�t deserve to get stuck being called the next anybody."

NEW YORK PRESS: "Angie Heaton showcases her own charming skills as a cowgirl diva"

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: "Her sharp sense of humor, melodic deftness, and cow-punk verve are hot enough to pop her out of the corn belt"
