Lauren Jauregui Delivers Surprise Performance At Jammcard's JammJam in Hollywood

Thursday night, at the invite-only Women of Jammcard JammJam event, Lauren Jauregui brought down the house alongside a slew of surprise guests like Chika, Sheléa, Madame Gandhi and Mads Paige. Hosted by Jammcard, the Music Professionals Network, the room was filled with a powerful energy, both onstage and in the audience, were captivated by the one-of-a-kind performance that only takes place at the JammJam. Backing Jauregui, Chika, Sheléa and the other artists who jumped in to perform were some of the top female musicians in the scene, including Nicole Row (Panic at the Disco), Kat Dyson (Prince), Angie Swan (David Byrne/Adam Lambert), Bianca Richardson (Willow Smith), Kyle Moscovich (Macklemore/Kanye West), Bonnie McIntosh (Selena Gomez), Ayla Tesler-Mabe (18 year old guitar influencer), and Victoria Theodore (Beyoncé, Stevie Wonder).

Jauregui, one of today's top artists making waves this year, amplified the jam-packed room with songs like recent singles "More Than That" and "Expectations," along with debuting some new tunes and even covering Lesley Gore's 60s classic hit "You Don't Own Me." Jammcard (intentionally) built her band for the event the day before the performance, keeping Jauregui, her band, and the audience, on the tips of their toes.

Jammcard partnered with She Is The Music (SITM) to curate the special night at Live House in Hollywood. SITM is a nonprofit organization increasing the number of women working in music - songwriters, engineers, producers, artists and industry professionals. Jammcard is an app that connects the music community by way of an invite-only social network for vetted pros. The booming Los Angeles-founded music tech startup was coined the "LinkedIn for musicians" by Forbes. Jammcard was founded by Elmo Lovano, a well-known drummer and musical director who has worked with Juliette Lewis, Skrillex, James Fauntleroy, Miley Cyrus and Christina Perri, among many others.

The JammJam is a reoccurring exclusive gathering of some of the greatest musicians and music professionals in the world. The most recent JammJam event honored George Clinton who performed alongside Ice Cube, Anderson .Paak, CeeLo Green, Eddie Griffin, Battlecat, plus members of the original Parliament Funkadelic, and even Flea from Red Hot Chili Peppers took to the stage (watch here). Other past artists include Cory Henry & The Funk Apostles, Robin Thicke with the Soul Rebels, Judith Hill, Terrace Martin with Kamasi Washington, and Ty Dolla $ign.
