This March, The Iridium will once again host four weeks of fierce female performers in celebration of Women's History Month. HERSTORY, HER VOICE at The Iridium will showcase some of today's most prolific women in pop, rock, jazz, and blues beginning with platinum-selling singer/songwriter Anna Nalick on March 1 & 2, and actress and cabaret chanteuse Myriam Phiro's MARIPOSA: An All-Female International Jazz Band on March 6. ?Inspired by their mutual devotion to jazz, world music, and social justice, Myriam Phiro (vocals and bandleader) and Hyuna Park (piano and musical direction) have created MARIPOSA as a jazz collective with a mission.

"This year's lineup features women that have made their mark on the music scene in 2017 - we have Blues Music Award nominee Vanessa Collier making her debut on The Iridium stage, as well as Natalie Forteza and Victoria Canal, both alumnae of our 'Mondays at The House' series," says Grace Blake, General Manager at The Iridium and Producer of HERSTORY, HER VOICE.

Other highlights of HERSTORY, HER VOICE at The Iridium include HER SONG, a musical revue showcasing 100 years of hits by legendary women such as Dorothy Parker, Joni Mitchell, Dolly Parton, Nina Simone, Stevie Nicks, Carole King and more, featuring vocalists Carolee Goodgold, Gabrielle Lee & Heidi Weyhmueller on March 20; a special performance by Iridium mainstay Aziza Miller on March 22; Brooklyn-based composer and guitarist Kaki King on March 23; and 15-year-old Moriah Formica, who recently competed on NBC's The Voice, on March 24.
