The Clambake

Posted on by

The Clambake is an online humor magazine that showcases the talents of young women in comedy. This amazing and hilarious group of women is currently focusing their efforts on raising money to support Tinderbox through a RocketHub campaign. Or, as they call it SUPPORTCEPTION: Support The Clambake, so they can support the Tinderbox Music Festival, so they can support empowering young women through the arts! Details on The Clambake and their RocketHub campaign can be found here. Meanwhile, check out the video below, in which Mel Trice (Clambake’s Founder), tickles our funny bone while explaining why you should donate to The Clambake and Tinderbox!

2011

Posted on by

2011 has been quite a wonderful year for us here at Tinderbox! We produced our 2nd annual Tinderbox Music Festival, our 1st Tinderbox Songwriting Workshop for young women in NYC, our 1st official CMJ Showcase, and co-presented two other music industry events including Piano Driven Women and Winter Song which benefitted empowering arts programs for young women, while at the same time showcasing female songwriters. We especially want to give a special thanks to organizations which were absolutely instrumental in helping us achieve our goals in 2011 including ASCAP, Converse, Girls Write Now, Inherent Artists, Jingle Punks, Presswolf PR, ReverbNation, Oven Fresh Music, Publicide, and Time Out NY!
