Launching the first ever producHER series is the Audio Girl Africa, a development which has been hailed by many, the recording and writing boot camp series aims to foster collaboration amongst female creatives across the music industry sector to create a music project together (a single/EP) each session will showcase the contribution of the selected female creatives working behind the scenes.
This series has been manifested through the generous support of Warner Music Group and the Blavatnik Family Foundation Social Justice Fund’s SJF Repertoire and the bootcamp aims to bring together female recording artists, songwriters, producers, mixing engineers, music executives, and industry professionals. Together, they will collaborate in a supportive environment to create and showcase their work within the music industry in the country.
The MD of Warner Music Africa, Temilade Adeniji had this to say about the project;
“In awarding Audio Girl Africa with a grant under the Repertoire Fund supported by the WMG BFF Social Justice Fund, Warner Music Africa furthers our commitment to championing participation of young African women in audio technology and the music ecosystem at large. We are extremely proud to stand behind an organization with such a clear vision and one that plays a huge role in closing the gender gap in this segment of the industry.”
Also making his contribution is Febe Adedamola, Founder of Audio Girl Africa, who equally said;
“This ProducHER series project is four years in the making and with the grant from the Warner Music Group/Blavatnik Family Foundation Social Justice Fund’s SJF Repertoire, our organization is able to launch an initiative like this and continue in our mission to increase the involvement of young African women in the music creation, production and engineering space by providing them with audio technology and music business training opportunities and resources. We are beyond grateful for the support.”
This is a development which has garnered a lot of popular support and is regarded by many as a needed step in the right direction especially when it came to light that it’s a project that would facilitate growth in the music industry.
