(That same route, by the way, could also make the Washington-State-raised Chicago resident eligible for a prize as Most Canadian Non-Canadian to Live Outside of Canada.) While at art school in Vancouver in the 1990s, Case played drums in a couple punk outfits. Her upbeat alter ego from those days still surfaces regularly when she sings with the New Pornographers, Vancouver's indie pop-rock supergroup. And Case has also been in cahoots...
