13 May 2010 — Helienne Lindvall on the Gender Gap
Hellienne Lindvall of the Guardian writes about the small proportion of women working in the music industry in England. Based purely on my own observations it seems likely to apply to Melbourne too. Can’t agree more with her closing statement:
I, for one, would love to see a music industry that reflects the general population – in gender, age and ethnicities. Would the musical landscape and the way artists are promoted and marketed be different? Would the music industry be better off for it? I think it would.
