Her songs are largely generic forgettable junk IMO.
If I recall correctly her first album did well as did the second but by album
3 she was basically a has been. She was on a major label for first 2-3 albums
(Maverick I think) then she was on Island/ Def Jam followed by Razor and Tie Records. Not sure what label she’s on now but her tours are very small clubs and theatres. She played my city of Ottawa in 2015 at a club that holds about 500. I saw her there and the set list sucked. She played Carousel then White Houses followed by. 7-8 new songs off of the new Lieberman Album then for the encores did 1000 Miles and 2 other songs I can’t remember but they weren’t from the new CD.

I wouldn’t cross the street to see her now.
