Women of color will take center stage, and community members across Los Angeles are invited to join in celebrating their artistry.<\/p>\n \u201cTake the Stage\u201d will feature women who are multi-instrumentalists and vocalists, such as Dulce Agave, which is an L.A. based group that plays a mixture of Mariachi, Norteno and even oldies. Members of the group include Lily Blanco on vihuela, Claudia Lique on guitarron and Desiree Zavala on accordion.<\/p>\n Santa Mykah, a bilingual Latin artist from San Diego, is another performer featured in the lineup. She is known for blending reggaet\u00f3n and trap with emotionally driven storytelling.<\/p>\n Zamythi, a Guatemalan L.A.-based DJ, will be the official DJ for the event. Her sets blend Latin, Afro Diaspora, and Electronic influences with unexpected selections that keep crowds engaged and unified.<\/p>\n Podcast host Kiara Gonzalez Duran said it\u2019s crucial to host events like \u201cTake the Stage\u201d because \u201cthe industry as a whole is majority male-dominated,\u201d and there aren\u2019t enough spaces where women of color are truly prioritized.<\/p>\n \u201cThat is why it is important to create spaces like this one and we are really trying to build a space that is sustainable so we envision this to become a music festival where women of color are at the center,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Kiara Gonzalez Duran, podcast host (left ) and Erin Jimenez (right), video producer of La Artisteada.

Like people know about these opportunities through networks. People recommend each other based on who you know. And although I think that people may be trying to make a change, it’s really hard, especially when the majority of the industry is white and male,\u201d she said. \u201cI also think that the industry pushes people of color out, because it’s a waiting game in this industry.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cTake the Stage\u201d will feature artists spanning Hip-Hop, R&B, Cumbia, and many more genres. Don\u2019t miss the chance to support female artists who are paving the way for the next generation of emerging talent.<\/p>\n When:<\/strong> Sunday, March 29, 2026<\/p>\n Tickets:<\/strong> $25 pre-sale and $30 at the door<\/p>\n Time:<\/strong> Doors open at 5:30 p.m. and the event starts at 6:00 p.m.<\/p>\n Location:<\/strong> Whiskey Hotel Hollywood, 1717 Wilcox Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90028<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.calonews.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Take the State flyer.
