Girl Pow-R is an all-girl pop rock band. The group consists of very talented young girls (ages 10 to 17) who create & sing original music, cover songs, play instruments, as well as dance! However, even more importantly, in today’s complicated world, Girl Pow-R’s mission is to provide young people around the world with a framework and model about how to be successful, and how to identify their own true gifts and be empowered to do more with those gifts!
Girl Pow-R was symbolically formed on International Women’s Day in 2017, when the motto was #BeBoldForChange. The band’s music provides an opportunity for the voices of these young women in their pre-teen to early teen years to speak to their peers in a fresh, new voice. The group has a unique mission to inspire young people and to support social causes with their music, positive messages, and age-appropriate lyrics. All of Girl Pow-R’s music is written to be confident, empowering and strong. It is imperative that we show that we each can be better by being resilient and not letting things stop us.
