Her parents supported her career in music As a teenager she took the G.E.D. She was also a martial arts adherent, and won state karate championships three years in a row. They spent the next several years living a rather itenerate life, moving around and living mostly in Minnesota suburbs and rural areas and at one point in their van.Įventually they settled in the Minneapolis suburb of Plymouth, where Adrianne lived for ten years.ĪdriAnne's father, John Lenker, was a musician and he recognized quite early on that AdriAnne had talent - she wrote her first song at the age of eight, and her first album, Stages Of The Sun, was recorded at the age of 13 and released when she was 14, on February 28th, 2006. Her family were part of a unidentified Christian cult but broke away from them when she was about five years old. Some biographical material:(mostly taken from Wikipedia)ĪdriAnne Lenker was born in Indianapolis on July 9th, 1991. My main goal here is to discuss the amazing music of AdriAnne Lenker, who I actually discovered via this site in 2019. Rating is not a prerequisite for joining this thread! I just like to rate songs as it focuses my critical thinking, and also I enjoy seeing how a collective rates a song.but for anybody who is uncomfortable with that, please do not feel you have to rate songs. I'll be rating each song according to my own inner compass and I will tally up the ratings given by me and anyone who participates - if anybody else participates. Today, and in celebration of the coming summer, I'm going to start holding up songs from AdriAnne Lenker and her Brooklyn based indie folk/rock band, Big Thief, on a song by song basis.Įach day I'll be holding up a song that features either AdriAnne Lenker as a songwriter, or a singer, or, mostly, both.
