Now in its fifth year, Play Like A Girl sessions are held on the last Tuesday night of each month from February through to November at the Cornish Arms Hotel, Brunswick.
Each session features a special guest artist, who performs a set from 7.30pm to 8pm. After the guest artist's set, other women musicians who wish to perform can go on stage for up to two songs each either solo or jam with other musicians. There is a stage with front of house speakers, foldback and microphones. Allans Music + Billy Hyde provides backline equipment including bass and guitar amps, a drum kit and keyboard. Sound technician Renee Delahunty mics up each act and takes care of everyone's sound needs.
Everyone is welcome at the PLAG sessions but only women and girls are permitted to perform. Under 18s permitted in venue and on stage if accompanied by a parent or guardian over 18. The focus is on creating a supportive and creative environment for musicians of any genre and level of accomplishment from beginners through to experienced performers.
