Firecracker is a Grammy-nominated album by Lisa Loeb. It was released in 1997 through Geffen Records.

The album was not as well received by critics as Tails, Cheva Chonin of Rolling Stone noted that the "endearing naivete and frothy, indie-rock guitar" of her debut album had been replaced by "by staid arrangements and lackluster riffs." ^[2]

The album was certified Gold in the USA and in Canada.

It was nominated for the 1999 Grammy Award for Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical.
