Roots & Rhythms – Women’s Day Special

Through rhythm and storytelling, we open a shared space blurring the lines between performance and audience to elevate our voices, dance our bodies and celebrate human connection.

Joining us are Let Drum Beat, Las Witchas, and Palacio de Poetas, making up for a night of art as community and a reminder of the transformative power of coming together through poetry, movement and music.

Featuring:

Let Drum Beat

A London-based band led by female percussionists, Let Drum Beat is heavily influenced by Brazilian & Afro-Brazilian rhythms. Fresh from the latest release ‘Aburá’, Let Drum Beat create a space of collective energy exploring sisterhood through music.

Las Witchas

A London-based music and multidisciplinary arts collective of Latin American women, Las Witchas! fuse Afro-Latin rhythms with poetry, dance and performance to experiment with new sounds, share urgent political and social issues, and honour the cultural keepers of our territories.

Palacio de Poetas

An artistic platform empowering Spanish and Spanglish-speaking poets through multidisciplinary work including poetry, music, and cinematic storytelling.  They create inclusive artistic communities in spaces in London & beyond where artists can connect. On the night, we’ll be transported by poets María Cuervo, Karlina Veras, and Camila de la Parra.
