SINGING OUT: Six female vocalists will be backed by Princeton-area musicians when Princeton Public Library presents WomenRock! on August 25 on the Green at Palmer Square.

Six female vocalists will perform hits by women rock pioneers when Princeton Public Library presents WomenRock! on Palmer Square on Sunday, August 25, at 3 p.m.

The end-of-the-summer celebration of women in rock’n’ roll will include a collection of hits from the 1950s to today by artists including Pink, Tori Amos, Aretha Franklin, Brandi Carlile, Alanis Morissette, Janis Joplin, and many others. The vocalists will be backed by rock musicians currently performing in Princeton area bands.

“The concert will be an exciting tribute to women who made and continue to make their mark on rock ‘n’ roll,” said Adult Programming Librarian Janie Hermann. “But even more than that, it will be a great chance for our community to gather for a fun and memorable celebration. We’re ending the summer on a high note to say the least.”

Vocalists scheduled to perform include Stephanie Chin, Eunice Franklin-Baker, Abena Sunshine Glazer, Olive Joseph, Dana Pontani, and Lisa Theodore. Band members will be Michael Giles (horns), Kathy Haynie (keys, backing vocals), Edward Hermann (guitar, harmonica), Laura Manfredi (bass), John Mazzeo (guitar), and David Ross (percussion).

The rain date is August 31. Visit princetonlibrary.org for more information.
