There are artists whose talent I can acknowledge while not liking their product or politics (Springsteen and Dylan). She is not one of those. This woman was a wannabe 60s folkie who dipped her toe into pop and found a sympathetic audience that needed a dyke champion. Like most frauds, she had ghostwriters on her music, and even her studio stuff was mostly performed, arranged, and written by people who knew what they were doing. She is a middling singer/songwriter who belongs on a stage in a pretentious town like Austin, making $150 a night and free beer. She’s been irrelevant since 1993.

I’m pretty sure it was a joke / story / made up to get a laugh.

I was never a fan. I was mostly into classic rock, jazz/rock fusion and just plain jazz.
