'Every Ounce Of What I Do Revolves Around Gender Equality': Girls Rock Charlotte's Krystle Baller On Moving The Needle Forward | WFAE 90.7 : vimarsana.com
/ Krystle Baller is music director for Girls Rock CLT and lead singer of the electro-punk band RICHARD. In 2019, USC Annenberg published a report about gender equity in the music industry. The numbers were dismal, to say the least, emphasizing the lack of major representation by women in all music trades. Women made up only 21% of artists, 12% of songwriters and around 3% of producers. As a touring and recording musician (most recently in the band RICHARD), Charlotte resident Krystle Baller has personally seen those numbers in action. Which is why she has dedicated her time to instructing women and gender diverse youth as music director for Girls Rock Charlotte and founder of Pachyderm Music Lab, ensuring the needle moves in a more positive direction for women in music.
