Rike van Kleef's new book, "Cheap Seats: Gender, Power, and Discrimination in the Music Industry," addresses critical issues of gender inequality and patriarchal structures in the music scene. Set to be unveiled during an event co-hosted by dq agency and Rausgegangen, attendees can expect musical highlights and guest speakers who will emphasize the need for change. The evening, taking place on March 13, 2025, aims to shed light on the persistent disparities that FLINTA artists face, culminating in a celebratory closing party.
"Finally, this important topic is being presented in all its facets. It's not enough to talk about representation; we need to scrutinize the structures that prevent FLINTA artists from succeeding. Rike van Kleef does exactly that in her outstanding book." - Ebow
"The music industry is far from the egalitarian, sparkling paradise it portrays. Even in the post-#MeToo era, patriarchal structures, gender inequality, and opaque power dynamics persist. It's high time for change!"
"Expect an evening filled with musical highlights, diverse special guests, relevant initiatives, and a closing party featuring FLINTA DJs."
"Enjoy an exclusive premiere reading from Rike van Kleef's book, where she delves deeply into the sexist structures within the music industry."
