"Women have been socialised to be grateful for the crumbs, assume we're not big enough for the big slices." And not only in the music industry, many others too. It's so tiring, and a struggle to see how things might significantly change.

Ah fuck it, THREAD, I guess. I’ve tried to hold my tongue re: the lack of female guitar acts/female headliners/the “pipeline problem” at Glastonbury. But perhaps my experience is relevant. I am a female guitar act. I write big, singalong chorus songs that go great at festivals.1/

I enjoyed reading the 5th Lesson of the @BristolCathedra #9lessonsandcarols (Luke 1.26-38) today. Verse 37 is always poignant: “For with God, nothing will be impossible”. For Him, but likewise to do through us. Thanks again to the Cathedral Team for serving our City excellently.
