About Me

In the beginning of time, women were the gatherers and men were the hunters. Creativity was expressed in practical forms, yet we cannot name the artists who left behind cave paintings or symbols carved in rocks.Fast-forward past thousands of years of "proper" forms of female expression and you come to rock.All-female bands paved the way in the mid-20th century to open the doors. Female bass players are still a minority, but we can rock!
