Girls Rock! Pōneke Announce Homemade Jams Streaming Festival

The team at Girls Rock! Pōneke are presenting their first ever streaming extravaganza this coming Friday with Homemade Jams, sporting a star-studded bill including Bad Friend, Giantess, Julia Deans, Louisa Nicklin, Motte, Sports Dreams and more. They're encouraging viewers to donate to the Girls Rock! Pōneke Give-a-Little Fundraiser, to help cover costs of their annual programme, which aims to "disrupt the current gender imbalance in our music industry through a series of school holiday programmes for young women, trans, non-binary and gender-non-conforming youth." We reckon that's a bloody great cause to support, take in the details right here...
