The singer known for hits “Spaceman” and “I Love Myself Today,” is still rocking on stage and creating new music.
“I love it,” said Bif Naked. “We are so lucky. I know a lot of bands just like me, our generation of 90s rockers get to see each other all summer long. Summer is when the festivals are.”
Bif Naked is going before the cameras in an upcoming documentary on her life created by Alberta company Score G Productions and it delves into the curious circumstances involving her birth.
“They’re actually going to interview my birth mom and she gets to tell her story for the first time,” she said.
Bif Naked will hit the stage at Dickens Pub on August 8, with Calgary band Betaboys opening.
