ASCAP Rhythm & Soul Presents Women Behind The Music

ASCAP’s Rhythm & Soul team held the NYC edition of the 3rd Annual Women Behind The Music Series, which honors women who have made great contributions to the music industry, on Wednesday night at Tenjune. With stops in Los Angeles and Atlanta, the series is designed to encourage and recognize women in the music community, highlighting not only women songwriters and artists, but women working in all facets of the business, including managers, attorneys, label executives and music publishers.

In New York City, those honored were Grammy Award-winning singer/songwriter Monica, SVP of Marketing, Universal/Motown music industry executive Phillana Williams and music industry powerbroker, manager and executive, Mona Scott-Young.

The evening, sponsored by Pharrell’s new liqueur Qream, featured music by DJ Miss Saigon as well a special guest Ne-Yo and a performance by Roc Nation pop/soul artist Bridget Kelly.
