Jill Sobule is an eclectic American singer-songwriter. She gained international notoriety in 1995, first by contributing her song “Supermodel” to the soundtrack for the motion picture Clueless, and then with the mildly controversial “I Kissed a Girl,” which became a surprise top 70 hit in the United States. In 1996, she had another minor hit with “The Secretive Life,” a single that won her more MTV play and appeared on the soundtrack for the Nickelodeon film Harriet the Spy.

She has won the praise of numerous and diverse musicians, including Warren Zevon, Don Henley, and the Go-Go’s Jane Wiedlin. Her songs are generally classified as rock, although they generally have clear influences from pop and folk.
