NOT YOUR MUSE

Welcome to Not Your Muse, a podcast that dissects the unique experience of being a woman in the music industry. Each episode features an interview with a different artist; we talk about their entry into music, and the struggles and triumphs that followed. The goal of this series is to bring attention to the sexism, both blatant and subtle, that women have to process as professionals.

​

In the wake of the #MeToo and #TimesUp movements, I felt a pretty overwhelming drive to contribute to this long overdue conversation. I was sure female musicians had been trying to tell their stories for a while (myself included) but maybe now, I thought, people will listen.

ABOUT
EP. 1

Our debut episode features Hailey Niswanger, a 28-year-old experimental jazz artist based in Los Angeles, CA. From playing Saturday Night Live to touring with Esperanza Spalding, Hailey's career has been nothing short of extraordinary. So, what did she do when her former mentor, who helped shape her relationship with music, crossed a line?
