TALKIN' LOUD!

TALKIN' LOUD!

LOUD WOMEN celebrate their fourth birthday with a wave of activity this autumn, including two major live events and a compilation album.

A not-for-profit initiative set up by musician Cassie Fox, Loud Women is a response to the lack of female representation in music. Since 2015, they've hosted 85 events at numerous venues around the capital, going on to establish chapters in New York, LA and Australia.

"The most interesting and powerful new music right now is coming from women," explains Fox. "Why? Women are free of the monotonous tropes of dull 'cock rock' – they experiment and innovate, with world-changing results. LOUD WOMEN provides a conduit for this awesome music, so that we can help maybe a few of these incredible artists emerge from the DIY curtain, and have ourselves hella fun along the way! Happy birthday to us."

On Saturday 14 September, the fourth annual Loud Women Fest will take place at The Dome in London's Tufnell Park, featuring 21 acts across two stages from as far afield as the USA, Canada and Turkey. Bands line up are PETROL GIRLS, LILITH AI, T-BITCH, I, DORIS, ARXX, HURTLING, THE CLEOPATRAS, JEMMA FREEMAN & THE COSMIC SOMETHING, THE MENSTRUAL CRAMPS, PEACH CLUB, THE BABY SEALS, GAPTOOTH, GGALLAN PARTRIDGE, SAMBA SISTERS COLLECTIVE, NERVOUS TWITCH, PERSONAL BEST, VAGINAS, WHAT ELSE?, SECONDHAND UNDERPANTS, THE TXLIPS, PLEASURE VENOM and HELLO DELAWARE.

The festival will also see the launch of the second Loud Women compilation album, Loud Women Volume Two, which will feature 21 acts that have performed at Loud Women events.

The fest will be followed a few weeks later on Saturday 12 October by Loud Women's 4th Birthday Party at Islington's iconic Hope & Anchor. Headlined by recently reignited anarcho mob HAGAR THE WOMB (pictured), the half-day event will also feature sets from RABIES BABIES, I, DORIS, THE MENSTRUAL CRAMPS, MINDFRAME and hotly-tipped Italian newcomers SMALLTOWN TIGERS.

Tickets are available here.
