Annie Hardy is considered one of the most original and respected voices in music. She possesses immense musical versatility and has never fit neatly, but that doesn’t make her an outsider. She’s a genre shaper and expander now doing her thing in a range or genres from comic to pov: indie to weirdcore to antifolk to keyboard-driven antiviral pop. She doesn’t even quite perfectly fit these, but that’s what Hardy fans and her fellow artists love. She’s familiar, but different. Way different. She’s drawn lyrical comparisons to Devi Mcaliion, Wesley Willis, Daniel Johnston, Mathew Lee Cothran, Petey and others. Hardy has spearheaded the neurodivergentcore art and music scene and collaborates with leaders in the anti-art movement. AVA recently declared her new single “Lobotomy” the ‘song of the year in the TikTok era.”
