Permanent Wave Presents: Quitzow, PS XO, Wojcik, Faith Reason, Brooklyn 4/28

I'm pleased to announce Permanent Wave's next Sound Wave performance series on April 28 at the all-ages D.I.Y. venue Shea Stadium in Brooklyn, benefiting the Center for Reproductive Rights. Details below. We want to bring together people from different areas of the New York D.I.Y. scene for a fun, informative, and lively night--even in New Jersey---that's where I'm coming from. So if you can please come out. Our first event in Brooklyn raised over $500 for the Center Against Domestic Violence--let's try to double that. Check out this simply hot track from our headliner, QUITZOW that the Owl Mag posted right here. See you soon!

Permanent Wave's First Feminist Performance Series this Sunday in Brooklyn

A new feminist group started by Amy Klein of Titus Andronicus called Permanent Wave is hosting its first event this Sunday at Death By Audio in Brooklyn and you're invited! I am in the group and also helped organize this event along with a bunch of awesome ladies, too. We'll have bands, poets, artwork, baked goods, and activities. It's a benefit for The Center Against Domestic Violence. Plastiq Passion, P.S. XO, Noon:30, and Emilyn Brodsky will be performing. Just $7. 

In the back room you can view an art show featuring work by Marissa Paternoster of Screaming Females, get information from For the Birds and Babeland, and engage in other neat activities! 

Finally, we'll have baked goods for sale, Tom Tom Magazines, and silk-screened prints of our event poster. Bands will be selling merch and For the Birds will have cd's, books, and other neats things for sale, too! 

This is more than just a show. Come out and rock for a cause, have fun, and revolutionionalize your Super Bowl Sunday. 

We hope you can make it. RSVP here:
