The Feminist Improvising Group (FIG) were a five- to eight-piece English free improvising avant-garde jazz and avant-rock ensemble formed in London in 1977. They were the first women-only group of improvisers and challenged the hitherto male-dominated musical improvisation scene. FIG performed live in London and toured Europe several times, where they played at music festivals in various venues, including Paris, Berlin, Copenhagen, Stockholm and Reykjavík.
