If you’ve got plans this weekend, cancel them and instead head
along to LOUD WOMEN Fest, taking place at London’s Rich Mix on Saturday, September
16.
Now in its seventh year, the non-profit event is celebrating its
‘most international showcase’ of female and non-binary artists yet
– featuring the likes of Breezy, Hipersona, ShyGodwin, The Dollheads and
more. Since its launch in 2015, LOUD WOMEN has hosted everyone from Nova Twins to
Lambrini Girls, so be sure head down to its 2023 instalment and check out your next
favourite bands.
Elsewhere, the likes of Kerrang! Award 2022 winner Janey Starling,
plus Safe Gigs For Women, Bloody Good Period, Janine Booth and Alliance for
Choice (Northern Ireland) will be appearing as guest speakers.
“There’s absolutely no excuse in 2023 for festivals not to be
booking at least 50 per cent female musicians,” says LOUD WOMEN Fest founder
Cassie Fox. “Gender equality makes all areas of life more balanced and
harmonious – especially in music!”
