WomenCrush Music's Nationwide Virtual Tour

#WomenCrush Music (#WCM), a non-profit arts organization dedicated to creating opportunities for rising womxn songwriters, has announced that it will be kicking off its much-anticipated nationwide virtual tour Thursday, August 6 at 6:30 PM PST with its “WomxnCrush Music On Tour: Spotlight On Bay Area Showcase”. Featuring Bay Area Female Bands/Artists Skip The Needle, Coraza, and Melissa Jones*, the show will support the Ivy Room in Albany, NY, with all donations benefitting the venue. Purchase tickets here. 

During this exclusive live music event, fans will enjoy sets from each of the three artists while helping to support the historic, female-owned, and operated Ivy Room. #WCM’s goal is to partner with local womxn/BIPOC owned music venues throughout the tour to support them with 100 percent of the proceeds from showcase ticket sales. In turn, participating artists will be supported thanks to the #WCM Facebook Fundraiser  

“When COVID-19 hit, I knew that as a community-focused organization we had to continue supporting our community in any way we possibly could,” #WCMFounder/CEO Ashley K. Stoyanov states. “While the weekly Instagram Lives and webinars were reaching an international audience and were a valuable resource, we wanted a way to help further connect the rising womxn songwriter community on a local level, as well as help support local music venues who truly make the local music scenes in these communities special. We have always wanted our events to be a place where womxn songwriters can find their next collaborators for shows and share resources, and we hope that we can continue doing that even if it is virtually through this pandemic.”
