The Filipino Superwoman Band is an all-female ensemble from the Philippines performing a sonic choreography. The core of the band’s repertoire revolves around the song ‘Superwoman’ by Karyn White. The song’s narrative of a woman’s affective labor is expanded and mirrored with the care work by Filipino migrant workers at large.
