Empowering Women in Electronic Music
About
Matriarch Music aims to close the gender gap in electronic music by curating equitable lineups showcasing femme and gender non-conforming artists while lowering the barrier of entry through educational workshops, sharing resources, and building community. Working together, we can flourish in a historically male-dominated space. Safety and respect are top priorities to ensure everyone is comfortable at all Matriarch events.
