📣 Happy International Women's Day!

Our aim with this page is to honor, attribute, and raise awareness on women that have impacted the world of music. We have also linked resources that are devoted in educating and supporting women in the music & audio industry, created by women.

We have come far in the pursuit of acheiving gender equality, but the music industry still has ways to go in making sure there is broader inclusivity with opportunities across the board.
