Lips Can Kill tour arrives in Coalville - as part of initiative to give women more presence in rock music

Victoria Bikers' Pub in Coalville is staging a gig with a difference tonight (Friday) with Lips Can Kill.

The idea first came to fruition in 2019 - to bring more female and diverse presence into the live music scene which has been dominated by male groups for so long.

Four London-based multi-international bands got together with a common aim and likeminded ideas set about touring the UK.

The bands are made up of musicians and singers from France, Brazil, UK, Ukraine and Sri Lanka.

This is an all-inclusive group of people who work in harmony with each other in their quest to bring joy, excitement, energy and exceptional performance to wherever they venture.

The four singers work in solidarity with each other and give support to one another rather than being in conflict and opposition to each other.

Healthy Junkies singer Nina Courson moved from France to the UK to pursue a musical career; Anelise Kunz of Yur Mum moved from Brazil; Myura Amara from Pollypikpocketz is of Sri Lankan heritage and Dolly Daggerz of Tokyo Taboo is British.

The gigs are a safe place for women and anyone from the LGBTQ+ community.

There was only one stand out incident on the last tour in Corby but that man was called to account immediately.

The bands will be on the road for most of March 2022 and are looking to causing maximum mayhem.

They arrive in Coalville today (Friday) and you can find out more about the gig HERE.
