Crush Afterwork Party Band: Lilith & The Wildflowers
Lilith & The Wildflowers, hailing from Tampere, Finland, embody danceable melancholy, crafting tales of love influenced by 2000s indie, post-punk, and 70s rock.
The international ensemble transport audiences to the realm of heartache, passion, and vulnerability— Harry Beech on Bass, Eemeli Siekkinen on Drums, Artturi Borén on Guitars, and lead vocalist Deniz Kırcı.
The lead vocalist Deniz Kırcı is celebrated for her achievements in Turkey, including over a million streams for her single "Lady” (2019), a song featured in the Netlix show “The Gift".
Recently, Lilith & The Wildflowers unveiled their debut single, 'Anybody Else,' introducing the heavier side of their musical spectrum.
Location: Stock Exchange Building Helsinki
Pörssitalo, in Helsinki’s Kluuvi district, has a long and colorful history since 1912. The stone castle has acted as the place for significant historical, business and cultural events. The building has hosted the Helsinki Bourse Club, Pörssiklubi, for men since 1912. They didn't let women into the club until 2019.
We think it's time to takeover the Stock Exchange Building. Come and show what business leadership looks like in 2024! Join us on May 8th, 2024.
