Women’s lives, despite over 150 years of feminist action, remain unequal under patriarchy. In popular music charts, women represent only 35% of performing artists, 19.5% of songwriters, and 6.5% of producers.*
While gains are being made in all of these areas - see for example this year's sweep of the board by women at the Grammys - change is slow. People who identify as women and gender diverse people must continually battle to make their voices heard.
This International Women’s Day, we’re celebrating and amplifying women’s artistic expression in a mega mixed bill choir extravaganza at The Rosemount. Join Hengequeens and some of our favourite choirs - Menagerie, Peppermint, Perth Harmony Chorus, She Shants and Voicemale - for an afternoon of songs by, for and about women.
