Backstage Chats with Women In Music connects music fans with female artists and industry insiders who remind us to be dreamers, to be rule breakers, and that we are all rock stars! We're on a mission to eliminate gender disparity in the music industry by amplifying the voices and careers of women in music. Hosted by Thea Wood, the show is produced by Backstage Chats Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization offering scholarship grants to women in music. Women are underrepresented on stage, on air, and behind the scenes in the music biz, so it’s our mission to create gender harmony one episode and scholarship at a time!
