It’s devastating. And it’s spot on. LA-based artist Wallice paints a self-effacing portrait illustrating the high-adrenalin elation and soul-obliterating pitfalls of fame on ‘90s American Superstar, the tale of a fictional pop star’s rise and fall in mega-stardom. Though it’s not autobiographical, Wallice didn’t shy away from examining her own dealings with fame, and the aftermath, as a music artist. It’s all there: The good, the bad, the ugly, and the what-level-of-hell-is-this moments, dark but irreverently funny.
Wallice will be in Austin for a show tomorrow night, Tuesday July 11, at Antone’s. Doors at 7 p.m., and the show starts at 8 p.m.
