Black WOMEN Rock! is a 15 year old rock and roll movement spearheaded by poet and activist,  jessica Care moore.  More than a rock concert, BWR is a movement that supports internationally known black women rock artists and musicians across the country.   A tribute to Betty Davis and all the trailblazing women  who came before them, the self-proclaimed  Daughters of Betty  are a cultural force in an industry that often doesn’t celebrate their power, their self empowered lyrics,  their independence  and sexually confident music.    Musically  directed by guitarist Kat Dyson, this cutting edge,  multi media show is an annually sold out event in Detroit.  BWR is an  electric, unapologetically black woman powered concert  supported by a host of San Fransisco based musicians,The  Black WOMEN Rock! Orchestra and legendary  DJ Stacey Hotwaxx Hale.

BLACK WOMEN ROCK! is a movement spearheaded by acclaimed poet, jessica Care moore in 2004 during the National Black Arts Festival. moore wanted to pay homage to one of her musical heroes, Betty Davis, and also give support and a platform to some of the amazing musical, rock and roll playing brown women she’d known for years.

BWR is about showcasing the music and stories of Black women who build institutions around their craft. Some of these women have traveled all over the world, independently and have never had real radio spins.

Black Women Rock is about paying homage to the women who came before us and empowering the young women who play guitar, cello, drums, sings, or write poetry, to tell their stories on their own terms.
