WOMEN WHO ROCK :: Making Scenes

Making Scenes :: Musicians, Producers, & Scene Makers

Making Scenes features people who make music scenes: from people who perform, produce, and work at record labels to people who run venues, book shows, and manage bands, as well as the fans who make scenes come alive. They work on the stage, at the club, in the studio, on the laptop, behind the bar, at the copy shop, on the air waves, and behind the scenes.
