A fiery, androgynous folk-punk provocateur from Chicago, Ezra Furman's Lennon-esque sneer, raw, open-hearted lyrics, and flamboyant style have helped to make her one of the most engaging and unpredictable art-pop confectioners of her era.

Emerging in the late 2000s with her band the Harpoons, she issued three well-received albums before going solo in 2012 with the release of The Year of No Returning – future offerings would be credited to Furman and a rotating cast of bandmates under monikers like the Boy-Friends, the Visions and the Band with No Name. She continued to hone her signature blend of boldfaced indie-folk and skiffle-kissed punk rock on critically acclaimed outings like the chaotic, doo-wop-inspired Perpetual Motion People and the unfettered Twelve Nudes.

Providing the soundtrack to the Netflix series Sex Education, Ezra continues to strengthen her place. She’ll return to ROXY after 7 years in November 2022.
