Minding the Gender Gap.

This panel will explore projects, initiatives and programmes in the music scene that are putting women front and centre – from the classroom, to the board room, to the stage.

This panel will look at how we can support more women to engage in historically male-dominated spaces, examine the “talent pipeline” and explore what more we can all do to move things forward. 

Both Sides Now is a three-year programme for young and emerging female artists and industry professionals, run by creative music charity Brighter Sound. Both Sides Now features residencies, commissions, training and apprenticeships alongside national and international showcases. Focusing on the North of England, it aims to bridge the gap in access, opportunities and career progression - introducing new voices to reshape a more equal and diverse music landscape.
