Laura Jane Grace is a major figure in today’s rock scene as both a solo artist and the front person of Against Me!, which she founded in Naples, FL in the late 1990s. As a working artist, she has released six solo offerings and seven albums with Against Me!, and in 2012 went public with her gender transition in the pages of Rolling Stone. In her music, she continues to detail her journey all while staying true to her earlier themes of outspoken political critique – environmentalism along with personal and social liberation – with a base in American music including country and folk-rock, with a penchant for noise and anarchy. Laura Jane has been joined in the past by her band featuring Matt Patton of Drive-By Truckers (bass) and Mikey Erg of The Ergs (drums). On the upcoming tour in 2026, she will be joined by Ara Babajian from the Slackers/Leftover Crack (drums), Mike Abbate from Screaming Females (bass) and Lulu Lucious from Thelma & the Sleeze (2nd guitar/vocals).
