Celebrate Women’s History Month

March is Women’s History Month, and we’re celebrating by highlighting some of the most iconic musicians in American history, as well as showcasing some lesser-known artists. Women historically have faced numerous challenges, such as limited access to training and work opportunities and undermining by industry leaders. In spite of these many roadblocks, women have been major contributors and leaders in music and the music industry. They’ve co-founded record companies (Mariam Abramson of Atlantic Records), held the title for most cumulative weeks at number one on the billboard charts (Mariah Carey), held the most consecutive number-one singles (Whitney Houston), are CEOs and presidents of major labels (Sylvia Rhone of Elektra Entertainment Group and Julie Greenwald of Island Records), lead music tech and business initiatives (Christine Osazuwa of Measure of Music, Jessica Powell of Audioshake, Xiaoyin Qu of Run the World, Natasha Stambuli of Boomplay), and much more.

To showcase a variety of incredible female musicians, we’ve curated a song pack and Spotify playlist featuring a variety of artists from the last 100 years. Click below to start learning a song today! For more on women’s history in and contributions to popular music, check out the resources from our friends at TeachRock.org
