How's the gender balance in 2022?
The Electric Indigo collective, female:pressure, has conducted an analysis of festival line-ups over the past decade to assess the progress of gender representation in electronic music. Their findings show an increase in female acts from 9.2% in 2012 to 26.9% recently. Despite the progress, larger commercial festivals lag behind in achieving gender parity. The survey emphasizes the need for accountability in the industry and outlines actionable steps for improvement, advocating for a balanced representation of genders at music events, which could foster broader societal changes.
