#WomxnCrush Music (#WCM), a non-profit arts organization dedicated to creating opportunities for rising womxn songwriters, has announced that it will be taking its nationwide virtual tour to the New York and Boston region Thursday, October 1 at 8 PM ET with its “WomxnCrush Music On Tour: Spotlight On New York and Boston” showcase. Featuring local Female Bands/Artists Liz Bills, ESS SEE, Natalia Malone & Stormstress*, the show will support Boston’s ONCE Somerville, with all donations benefitting the venue. Tickets are required and available now at: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/wcm-on-tour-bostonnyc-showcase-ft-liz-bills-natalia-malone-tickets-120409595341


During this exclusive live music event, fans will enjoy sets from each of the artists while helping to support the independently-owned female operated venue ONCE Somerville in Boston. #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 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 to share resources, and we hope that we can continue doing that even if it is virtually through this pandemic.”


The tour will continue through mid-December, spotlighting a new city or region every two weeks. In addition to songwriter showcases, #WCM is also teaming up with local industry professionals to host panel discussions and webinars in each market.


The organization will also be hosting the “WomxnCrush Music: Inside A&R at a Major Label presented by Elektra Music Group” webinar on Tuesday, October 6 at 2 PM ET. The webinar will feature local industry professionals Tia Rabinovitz and Caterina Nasr.
