More about Acoustic Live:

Award-winning, multi vessel platform, Acoustic Live is dedicated to keeping stripped back music alive, building a community, and providing a powerful platform that offers artists a chance to flourish is back with a new mission. Celebrating International Women’s Day.

Acoustic Live is creating an all-inclusive intimate space for everyone who identifies as a woman, for one of two reasons. The first, to create safer spaces for less confident women to talk about their aspirations in the creative industry – specifically music, without judgment. The second? Empowering women and highlighting the free opportunities that are available for them in the creative industry.

“We hold the belief that charitable purposes carry the fundamental factors of every community, especially in music. The reason behind our event is not to put the lack of support for women in music under a microscope, but to highlight the free tangible opportunities for said women. It’s particularly important to us to increase the accessibility of resources in the creative industry.”
