In this episode, I’m joined by author and academic Dr Rosemary Lucy Hill to discuss her new co-authored work 'Unsilenced', a powerful new book exploring gender-based violence in the popular and live music industries. We talk about how abuse is enabled by structures within the industry, the stories of victims like Ke$ha, and what artists, promoters, and fans can do to create safer, more inclusive spaces in their local music scenes.
TW: this episode contains discussions of sexual violence and abuse
