Meet the 2025 Headliner: Margaret Glaspy
Known for her raw, unfiltered songwriting and powerful performances, Margaret Glaspy is set to take the Ladybug stage by storm.
- Her latest EP, The Sun Doesn’t Think (ATO), follows her critically acclaimed album Echo The Diamond, which received praise from The New York Times, NPR, The New Yorker, and Rolling Stone.
- Influenced by artists like Tom Waits and Kim Gordon and inspired by the surrealist writings of Neil Gaiman, Glaspy’s sound is both familiar and refreshingly unique.
- Her 2023 single “Act Natural” reached the Top 20 at AAA Radio, marking a new high in her career.
Expect an unforgettable live set filled with her signature mix of emotional depth and stripped-down honesty.
