GIRLS ROCK!
Comes to LANEWAY

“We want to eradicate all of the limiting myths about music and gender which make FTGD [female, trans & gender-diverse] people afraid to speak up, sing out, and make noise!” – Girls Rock!
“A big part of it Girls Rock! is encouraging girls to have fun and not be intimidated or scared or feel like they have to fit a certain mould to make other people happy.” – Courtney Barnett
“MOJO Kombucha and Girls Rock! share the mission of embracing our authentic creativity and celebrating the moments that truly make us feel good.” – Anthony Crabb, MOJO founder

MOJO and St. Jerome’s Laneway Festival are teaming up with Girls Rock! Australia to empower the next generation of women and gender-diverse musicians.
The MOJO x Girls Rock! activation at Laneway Festival 2019 will be the ultimate destination to catch amazing live performances on the Girls Rock! curated pop-up stage, while sipping on a refreshing MOJO Kombucha Mocktail.
Each of the five Australian Laneway Festival dates will feature a unique line-up including Courtney Barnett, Alex the Astronaut, Alex Lahey, Thelma Plum, Georgia Maq (Camp Cope) and Middle Kids, plus Girls Rock! affiliated bands.
The project is in support of Girls Rock! Australia: a national network of music camps empowering girls, trans and gender-diverse young people aged 10-17 through music education and mentorship. Girls Rock! Australia are working to create major social and cultural change in the Australian music industry, and MOJO are generously donating $15,000 to this fantastic cause.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
