“This All-Female, Genderqueer Music Series Is Changing Everything” - NYLON

The Hum is a concert series that celebrates, instigates, and nourishes the community of womxn and gnc musicians and artists in New York City. Hum concerts feature womxn and non-binary artists on stage, and all walks of life in attendance. Since its formation in 2015, the series has presented more than 300 musicians in venues such as Pioneer Works, Le Poisson Rouge, Hudson River Park, National Sawdust, House of Yes, and beyond. Long-lasting friendships, creative relationships, and even bands have emerged from these collaborations. The music crosses a constellation of genres and influences, all coming together to form a space where womxn are linked – not ranked – and celebrated for their artistry on its own terms.
