Raise Your Glass was built on the belief that women deserve to be seen, heard, and celebrated for the impact they create.

For Ksenia “K Sound” Plastinina, @ksoundengineering that impact lives in the studio. 🎙️

Born in Siberia and now a respected force in Chicago’s music community, Ksenia built her career through determination and a deep love for sound.

Without formal music training, she entered the industry through hands on experience, eventually launching her own recording studio and building a team of engineers who continue to shape the sound of artists across the city.

Today she is an audio engineer, studio owner, and GRAMMY® Recording Academy Voting Member, recognized for her work behind the boards and her commitment to the craft.

This year at Raise Your Glass, Ksenia makes history as our first Ally of the Year, honoring the role she has played in supporting and engineering music for Black artists throughout her career and during the #blacklivesmatter movement. ✊🏾

And this moment becomes even more special as we celebrate her on her birthday. 🎉

Join us March 29 at Raise Your Glass as we continue the conversation and celebrate the women shaping culture and legacy.

To give her the love she deserves tickets can be found at: timesupstartnow.com or in the bio. 🤍

In honor of her birthday the first two people to repost and follow @timesup.productions will receive two complimentary tickets.

Follow @timesup.productions for exclusive giveaways and more announcements to come.
