We asked Girls Rock Dublin to tell us their favourite female musicians
GIRLS ROCK CAMP is finally coming to Ireland.
GRD is a non-profit group that runs camps aimed at “empowering girls and women to discover their musical and artistic potential”.
The camps take place worldwide, but the first Dublin one will run June 27-July 1st. Applications are now open to attend, and it sounds like the best craic ever.
You’ll learn to sing, or play an instrument (guitar, drums, bass, keyboard), and previous musical experience is not needed.
There will be workshops on topics such as stage set-up, women in music history, and performance – all carried out by an all-female team.
We asked the camp’s organisers to tell us their favourite female singers or bands from the past, and present
