RESISTER

The gender divide is roughly 30% women and 70% men across all areas of the music industry. The situation won’t change overnight, but we can raise awareness, share resources, and help both industry peers and aspiring newcomers feel less alone. To do so LBB’s Zara Naseer platforms words of wisdom from women in the UK music world.

Our Senior Music Supervisor Thomas Cottrell has been crate digging with Concord discussing two of his favourite finds - 'Odyssea' by the amazing Nubya Garcia and the Afro-Cuban jazz record 'Sofrito' by Mongo Santamaria. As a regular crate digger in his spare time, he's your go-to for deep cuts - Ethio-jazz, anyone? He also curates our monthly REWIND playlist of tunes we're loving (both old and new) so give it a listen / save below. https://lnkd.in/e-fZUXzM https://lnkd.in/eHZdnh_p

Transparency is key in addressing diversity across the music for media space. I sat down with the lovely David Simkins for the Guild Of Music Supervisors to discuss how we are resisting some of the norms in our industry and how other music supervisors (and beyond) can tap into our network at 515 to diversify their bespoke work. https://lnkd.in/e5XA8Gp5 https://lnkd.in/emDS5SVQ

Some new work to share for Dove as we all go back to school and as it would happen the theme of the film is around girls stopping participating in school activities due to worries about their appearance. I have an 11 year old daughter starting senior school this year so am living it myself and so very honoured to play my part. Shout outs to my wonderful US team working with me on this.

🚨 NEW WORK: It’s always a pleasure to work with Big Sync Music. This time we helped with the music editing of a bespoke version of "Internalize" by Lily Hain for this Dove campaign, highlighting the worries girls have about their appearance, and the effect this has on their participation levels in school activities.
