Every so often, Katie Marie and Joe put together a show featuring music from women artists or from bands dominated by women. Why do we do this? As Niamh Parsons told us once, more girls learn musical instruments than boys, but more men go on to careers on stage and in the studio. This leads to women being underrepresented in traditional music both on stage and on the radio. Here at High Country Celtic Radio, we try to stay aware with every show, and we even keep a weekly score on how well we did at presenting women artists: 50 means exactly equal airplay for women, and we strive to keep a score 40 to 60.
This week, we play these extraordinary musicians who happen to be women: Aoife Scott, Sarah McQuaid, Ruth Keggin, Stray Hens, T With The Maggies, The Shee, Cassie & Maggie, Kierah, Sophie & Fiachra + André Marchand, Calan, Polca an Rí, The Bridies, and Ann Gray.
The FairPlé score for this week: 100
