Free Jazz Fridays: She:Music x Women In Jazz Takeover

Friday 26 September

As part of the She:Music project, B:Music continues its commitment to spotlighting and supporting female talent across the music industry. This long-term initiative is designed to champion women in music by forging partnerships, presenting live performances, and creating collaborative platforms that amplify underrepresented voices.

Through dynamic curation and industry support, She:Music aims to foster a more inclusive and vibrant musical landscape.

For this edition of Free Jazz Friday, B:Music is thrilled to partner with Women In Jazz, an organisation dedicated to elevating the profiles of female jazz artists across the UK. This special evening marks a unique takeover of the regular Friday programme, with a handpicked lineup curated by Women In Jazz. These performances will showcase fresh talent and established artists alike, highlighting the incredible contributions women are making in the jazz world.

The collaboration offers a rare opportunity for Birmingham audiences to experience the creativity and diversity of the UK’s contemporary jazz scene—right in the heart of the city. With support from B:Music, the artists will be given the platform they deserve to connect with new listeners and continue to push boundaries within the genre.

Expect a vibrant night of live music, filled with expressive improvisation, bold compositions, and captivating performances from some of the most exciting female jazz musicians in the country. Whether you’re a seasoned jazz enthusiast or simply curious to explore something new, this Free Jazz Friday promises an evening of high-calibre artistry and inspiration.
