GRRRLS to the Front
In the spirit of Women’s History Month, we are turning the spotlight on women (our definition of women is inclusive of cis and trans women, as well as nonbinary people affected by gender oppression). For the entire month of March we have booked almost entirely women-fronted bands. We’ve also created a curriculum and workshop, free and exclusively for women, all about the production side of live music! In the music industry, women have historically been grossly under-represented. We are passionate and committed to keeping a lens on inclusion and representation.
Partnerships and collaborations make the world go round! We have partnered with Vermont Women’s Fund and Foam Brewing, they have graciously agreed to sponsor our Women Belong in the Booth Workshops- meaning this program is FREE. We are collecting donations throughout the month to benefit our other two presenting partners- Planned Parenthood of Northern New England and The Women’s Freedom Center (link to all three groups). For every dollar you donate when purchasing a ticket, we’ll match it! (Up to $2,000). All of these organizations are doing important work in our communities. We are proud and grateful to stand beside them and amplify their work!

This will be a four week course. Every Tuesday in March from 6-8pm, our lead engineer Dan Richardson will lead a two hour class. Thanks to Vermont Women’s Fund, this offering is FREE.
Week 1: Fundamentals. What is sound, really? How do microphones and speakers work? And the most important skill, how do you correctly wrap a microphone cable?
Week 2: Meet the mixing desk. Gain structure, EQ, stage monitors, feedback.
Week 3: Hands-on, mix a band. Mic a drumset, vocals, electric and acoustic guitars.
Week 4: Advanced topics such as recording, mic types, iPad remote mixing, room acoustics, or anything else people want to touch on.
