New York's First All-Female Festival Announces Music Lineup

Ravyn Lenae, Kari Faux, Flint Eastwood, Tangina Stone and Dana Williams will play as part of the Other Music showcase at the second annual The Other Festival, it was announced today by festival founder Dee Poku. The first of its kind, the extraordinary two-day, all-female festival takes place on October 14 and 15 at City Point Brooklyn.

"I'm so proud the incredible group of musicians our team has assembled," said Dee Poku. "This festival was created because women are marginalized across the global festival circuit, where very few female-led bands or headliners are featured. Our goal with this event was to provide a platform for an inclusive and diverse group of the best new talent. The Other Festival is a place of discovery and I can't wait for people to come and check out what we've pulled together."

The full music lineup is as follows:

Saturday October 14

Dana Williams, Jess Best, Baby Yors, Cherubim, Quiana Parks, MAAD, Alex English

Sunday October 15

Ravyn Lenae, Kari Faux, Flint Eastwood, Tangina Stone, Jasmine Solano, Amy Leon, Mira Fahrenheit

The festival will also feature talks with business and cultural innovators covering entrepreneurship, culture, design, branding, and more. The all-star speaker lineup includes musicians Alexis Krauss (Sleigh Bells) and Samantha Ronson; Michelle Monaghan, Jenna Lyons, Mary Alice Stephenson, Stacy London, Garance Doré, Mara Hoffman, Misha Nonoo, Norma Kamali, Ebonee Davis, Katia Beauchamp, Sarah Sophie Flicker, Amanda Chantal Bacon, Jennifer Hyman and Zoe Buckman.

Other festival attractions include a unique marketplace, the Other Shops that will highlight hand-picked female founders, artists and makers, and showcase/sell their work.
