Women of the World Takeover

Angela James is celebrating her return to performing after having a baby by leading different ensembles every Tuesday night in March at the Hideout. James released her second full length record, Time Will Tell, in March of 2016 and gave birth to a daughter later that year. Each week of the residency will highlight a different concept and feature different collaborators.

All door proceeds of the 14th, 21st, and 28th will be donated to the Southern Poverty Law Center. Middle Brow Brewing is generously sponsoring the residency.

Angela James invites a group of female Chicago musicians to cover other Chicago female musicians of any genre or era. Janet Bean, Sima Cunningham and Macie Stewart will be the “house band” for the show and performers will include:

Annie Higgins
Tomeka Reid
VV Lightbody
Kaina
Quinn Tsan
Emily Beidel
Anna Fermin
Bethany Thomas
Tasha Viets Van Lear
Julie Pomerleau

The night will be a celebration of the female musicians of Chicago’s past, present and future. All proceeds from the door will be donated to the Chicago Women’s Health Center.
