Warner Music will organize next May the third edition of She Sounds. This is an initiative that seeks to highlight the role of women in the music industry. becoming a meeting point to generate common work, create debate and show music made by women with live sessions for several days.
In this third year’s program, which will be held on May 29 and 30, it will feature different sessions or talks open to the public; Composition and live music camp from The Music Station in Príncipe Pio (Madrid). Likewise, this Women’s Week, Warner Music has scheduled a few days dedicated to musical production. These days the goal is to bring together women from the entire sector (artists, producers, composers… from different labels and record companies) to work together for a week.
She Sounds will highlight the role of women in the less recognized roles in the industry with specific training and activities. This year, we will highlight the role of women producers with She Sounds Production Week: 4 free training sessions in music production for artists, authors, and industry professionals, with the aim of promoting the participation of women in music production to create more comfortable and safe spaces for all.
In the first edition, She Sounds managed, through the composition camps, to create connections between artists, producers and authors. In the second edition, a new step was taken and Latin American profiles were added to the program and in the next edition they have already confirmed a session dedicated to the role of women in urban music, where Sonia Cuevas, founder of the Zona Bruta record label, is the first to be confirmed.
Artists and professionals such as María Becerra, Lola Índigo, Inés Hernand, Leila Cobo and Rosa Lagarrigue have been part of the project. “We believe that She Sounds is a necessary initiative to show the role of women in music because in this industry there is still no equality and there is a lack of opportunities for female talent. The entire sector agrees on this. And it is an initiative for everyone. Therefore That’s what we want to show the music composed, performed and produced by women. And if in two editions, concentrated in 2023, so many women’s voices have gathered, it is because here there is a job to be done by everyone. From the emotion and pride of what “women are contributing to this sector” explained Diana Izaguirre, A&R Manager at Warner Music.
