From Founder Brenda Kahn:
I think it’s important for all women musicians to realize their potential as players. Although women are much more prevalent in mainstream music today, the obstacles and prejudices are still there. The appropriateness of rock ˜n’ roll as a career for women, the necessity for women to look and dress a certain way (something that takes time and attention away from working on your skills as a player), or just the fact that 99.9 percent of all labels are run and managed by men puts women at a disadvantage when trying to negotiate the testosterone-fueled music industry. But to rise above the muck and really learn to play, you first have to realize that it’s possible to be a girl and still rock with as much passion as any guy out there.
