2016 Hit Like A Girl Champion Helen De La Rosa will take the stage as a featured performer during the upcoming Percussive Arts Society International Conference (PASIC) in Indianapolis, Indiana. The session, which is sponsored by Hit Like A Girl and PAS, is scheduled to take place on Saturday, November 12, 2016 at 9:00 AM.
The 2016 Champion is originally from the Dominican Republic where she attended special schools for music and the arts before receiving a full scholarship to the Berklee College of Music in Boston. Helen recently graduated from Berklee with degrees in both performance and production and relocated to Los Angeles to begin her professional career as a studio and touring musician.
“Music can be powerful, but it comes with a huge responsibility,” the 25-year-old says in an interview in Drum! magazine. “I take it very seriously. That’s why my main focus is to serve the music and not myself.” This passion and commitment is evident throughout her winning HLAG entry— an intense, inspiring and infectious cover of Lido’s “Lost” that she will perform live during her PASIC appearance.
The HLAG-PASIC session is open to all convention attendees with Miss De La Rosa’s gear provided by Hit Like A Girl sponsors Mapex, Sabian, Evans, and Vic Firth. For more information visit www.hitlikeagirlcontest.com or www.pasic.org.
