Hear Her Song- Telling Women’s Stories through Song

Hear Her Song

Women Like Us Foundation is thrilled to support and be a part of this impactful and important initiative as participant and sponsor.

The Canales Project’s Hear Her Song has been producing music since 2017, and continue to aim to create a difference through the arts. Their next venture is the New York City Production Premiere at Joe’s Pub at The Public Theater, on Oct. 14.

As a program derived from the work of the Canales Project, the Hear Her Song campaign uses music to celebrate the astonishing work of brilliant women. In two years, an all female-team of 65 artists has created 40 songs in tribute to 35 female leaders.

The organization reaches out to women internationally in order to honor a variety of achievements and hard work. Canales Project founder and director, Carla Canales, believes music is a beautiful way of appreciating the different languages that have built accomplished women.

“One of the great gifts of singing is that it gives us the opportunity to use both language and music,” Canales said in a documentary about the project. “In crafting this project, the language was an essential part of telling the story.”

When the Hear Her Song project was first established in 2017, it partnered with other organizations to discover women that deserved tribute. From then on, the campaign examined statements from each woman, to fully understand each individual journey in its own original words.
