Event Preview: Dance for the Women of Afghanistan @ The Post Bar (London; Saturday 9th October 2021)
When the good ol’ friends and music lovers at Amaraterra asked for our support, we couldn’t help but jump aboard the organisation bandwagon of their upcoming charity event at The Post Bar in Tottenham.
On Saturday the 9th of October, together with a bunch of quality, far-out and eclectic London-based musical buddies, we will give life to Dance for the Women of Afghanistan, a music marathon with an important purpose. The proceedings of the event (tickets are £7 OtD) will indeed back and help to fund the work of Women for Afghan Women, a “grassroots civil society organisation dedicated to protecting and promoting the rights of disenfranchised Afghan women”.
Starting at 7PM and ending late at night, the event will gather together musicians and DJs from the most diverse styles and traditions…
