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:

Permanent Wave presents: Plastiq Passion, noon:30, P.S. XO + poets, art (Brooklyn 2/6)

Dear Friends,

I've had the honor of working with Amy Klein of Titus Andronicus and several other awesome ladies, collectively known as Permanent Wave, to host a feminist performance live series called "Sound Wave." The event is happening on Feb. 6th at Death By Audio in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. It will feature music by Plastiq Passion, P.S. XO, Noon:30, and Emilyn Brodsky; poetry by Kelly Zen-Yie Tsai and Hanelei Ramos; and artwork by Marissa Paternoster of Screaming Females.

Permanent Wave is a feminist group of diverse individuals who know that women are more than groupies and merch girls. We value art from female and LGBTQ people that challenges the norm. We believe that women should see other women as collaborators and inspirations, not rivals. We want to rip the band-aid off the halted conversations and change the way women are treated. Permanent Wave's live concert series is just one way to get things rolling.

The event is a benefit to support the Center Against Domestic Violence in Brooklyn. The theme of the show is relationship violence. Studies show that every year domestic violence is at a high on Superbowl Sunday. The event seeks to bring many groups of people together for an informative, fun, and visual and aural experience in  a safe environment. 

We'd love to have you there. Details below. 

-Star and Permanent Wave
