About the event
For NZ Music Month the Charlotte Museum Te Whare Takatātpui-Wāhine o Aotearoa are celebrating Lesbian Sapphic Musicians of The Past and Present
The ‘Past and Present’ concert at the Grey Lynn Library Hall, 474 Great North Road, Grey Lynn.
Saturday May 11th 2024 from 7:00pm
The museum is hosting an evening of live music paying tribute to the lesbian sapphic musicians of previous generations. Taking inspiration from the seminal collective album 'Out of The Corners' released in 1982, we have gathered a new collective of talented lesbian sapphic musicians to put their spin on music from the past. We wish to honour the work and dedication of the lesbian wāhine who paved the path to make the Aotearoa music scene more inclusive and accessible.
‘Past and Present’ showcases a variety of songs written by influential musicians and activists such Mahinaarangi Tocker, Val Murphy, Lynda Topp, Di Cadwallader, Jess Hawk…
