On their last tour, their road crew was Female-Dominated! It looks like their 2019 road crew will be diverse as well! Whitney Leigh, Erika Duffee, and Mary Broadbent worked the LoveLoud festival with Tegan & Sara!
The Turn It Up Hall of Fame: Honoring pioneers of gender and music. Women will be heard! Turn It Up was founded to raise awareness of women’s vital contributions to music past, present, and future. These contributions are too often overlooked. As of 2019, only 7.7 percent of the inductees into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame were female, according to a Longreads article by Evelyn McDonnell. Turn It Up is creating their own hall of fame, one whose emphasis on inclusion is rooted in a broad and generous understanding of genre and gender. Send them your nominations! TurnItUpTeam@gmail.com.
