Queer House Party and Ravers For Palestine are hosting a livestream this week with I. JORDAN, GGI 끼, BAESIANZ and more to fundraise for striking artists.

The online-only livestream event will broadcast via CastRooms this Thursday, 28th March, from 6 PM to 11 PM GMT. All proceeds will be donated to Ravers For Palestine’s Solidarity Strike Fund, which supports artists who’ve lost paid work to support pro-Palestine boycott efforts. 

“Venues in the music industry are funding or politically supporting Israel’s war crimes against the Palestinian people — from SXSW to HÖR to E1 to Berghain and the German state-funded arts institutions“, Queer House Party wrote in the event description. “By supporting this fighting fund, enabling more artists to boycott these institutions, we can move our industry towards divestment from genocide and support the international resistance, exerting pressure to bring an end to the war in Gaza.”

The line-up features UK producer I. JORDAN and collectives GGI 끼, drum & babes and BAESIANZ alongside co-hosts Queer House Party. “We will not allow our identity be used to justify genocide,” QHP wrote. “…We vow to use our queerness to extend solidarity to Gaza and to stand for a Free Palestine and to resist our identity being used as an ideological weapon of war.”

Ravers For Palestine’s strike fundraising efforts ramped up in the last month to support artists who dropped out of Austin, Texas festival South by Southwest in protest of its military contractor sponsors. About 300 electronic music artists signed its October open letter in solidarity with Palestine. 

Earlier this month, I. JORDAN released the ‘Close To You‘ single in the lead-up to their debut album ‘I AM JORDAN‘, out in May.

In 2022, Queer House Party released a compilation, featuring I. JORDAN, to raise money for refugees in Calais.
