- On today's Women In Music Spotlight, we look at the amazing Linda Perhacs, whose 1970 album Parallelograms took folk music into bold new sonic waters, but whose follow up album did not come for 44 years. Here is the haunting and gorgeous Chimacum Rain: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZuYL... 🎹
- Today's Women In Music Spotlight falls on Laurie Anderson (b. 1947), who fused experimental music and pop in the early 1980s to create some of the most distinct soundscapes of that era, including this, her 1981 hit O Superman: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vkfp... #WomenInMusic #MusicSky 🎹
- Today's Women in Music Spotlight falls upon the figure of Isabella Leonarda (1620-1704), a prolific composer of sonatas and motets in the great 17th century tradition of women composers fostered in the musical environment of the convent system. #WomenInMusic #Music #BookSky 🎹🎵 Book coming Feb 28!
- For today's Women In Music spotlight I'm heading to Turkey, home to some of my all time favorite women vocalists and songwriters. This is from the legendary Second Wave of Turkish women pop performers - Nil Burak's (b. 1948) iconic Tatlı Tatlı. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCoa... #WomenInMusic 🎹🎤
- Today's slice of Women in Music history comes from living legend Wanda Jackson, the Queen of Rockabilly, who will be celebrating her 89th birthday this year. Her distinctive vocals and infectious energy paved a new direction for women country musicians in the 1950s. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGMf...
- Welllllll shucks - looks like A History of Women in Music's UK launch date has been pushed back a month. But, hey, that's just more time that I can share some super cool figures in it with y'all! Here's a favorite from vocal experimentalist Joan La Barbara! www.youtube.com/watch?v=M95V... 🎹 📖
