Artist Bio
Across four decades, 16 studio albums, and over 15 million records sold, the Grammy-winning duo of Emily Saliers and Amy Ray continue to blaze the trail for generations of Queer artists in the mainstream.
The pair began their career in clubs around their native Atlanta before signing to Epic Records in 1988. Their eponymous major label debut sold over two million copies, powered by singles "Closer to Fine" and "Kid Fears." It was the first of six consecutive Gold and Platinum-certified albums.
"We joke about being old, but what is old when it comes to music? We're still a bar band at heart," says Saliers. "Our passion for music feels the same as it did when we were 25."
Beyond music, Saliers and Ray are committed activists working on racial justice, reproductive rights, immigration reform, LGBTQ advocacy, and Native American rights.
Recently, "Closer to Fine" featured prominently in Greta Gerwig's blockbuster Barbie, introducing Indigo Girls to a new generation. Their 2024 documentary It's Only Life After All blends 40 years of footage into a heartfelt career retrospective.
