(Halifax, NS) – A benefit concert featuring many of Nova Scotia’s emerging women musicians is taking place as part of the International GoGirls Music Fest on November 18th at The Company House. The concert, presented by Harmony Bazaar Festival of Women and Song will feature the talents of Tiffani Latham, Connie Sauliner, Mel Farrimond, Breagh Potter, Amy Lee Blanchard, Christine Campbell, Kate Surette, Rosie Folks, and Perpetual Detour. Those fortunate enough to get tickets for the show – only $15.00 and available at The Company House – will also receive a FREE GoGirls Music Fest CD.

GoGirls Music Fest is a series of benefit showcase events held across the world stemming from the international organization supporting women in music called GoGirls Music. Each year this network of chapters chose a different international charity to support, and for 2011 the Nova Scotia GoGirls chapter is proud to stand with cities like Houston, Los Angeles, and Tokyo to host the Halifax concert benefiting the Red Thread Movement.

The Red Thread Movement is a student initiative that unites voices against the human rights violation of sex trafficking to combat sexual slavery in Nepal. GoGirls is a unique organization that focuses on advancing the careers of independent female artists. The GoGirls Music Fest promotes independent women in music. “This partnership with GoGirls Music Fest, The Company House, and Harmony Bazaar is so important in making this benefit concert possible. We’re very proud to host the Nova Scotia event as part of a worldwide series benefitting the incredible work of the Red Thread Movement against sex trafficking. It will be an amazing night of music,” says GoGirls Nova Scotia organizer and Harmony Bazaar Artistic Director Errin Williams Spidle. For advance tickets call the Company House at 404-3050.
