Over the years International Women’s Day has grown to become a global movement. With each year there are more events being added to a growing list to celebrate, identity, culture and women empowerment. This 8th March is no exception and one of event in particular encapsulates all of this and takes a progressive step towards representation and inclusivity.
Organised and hosted by Crazy Brit Asian and Asian Tones, and supported by PRS for Music, the Hear:HER concert celebrates on the actual day itself by showcasing 6 up and coming British Asian female artists at the iconic XOYO, Shoreditch which has previously hosted the likes of Drake, Skepta, Frank Ocean, Donald Glover, Jessie J and Carly Rae Jepson to name a few.

Not only is this an iconic venue graced by legends, it’s made history and been the stomping ground of many on their way to the big leagues. Hear:HER becomes the latest addition as another one for the books.
