Men have dominated the music industry since the beginning. Few women have penetrated the 12.22-Billion Dollar industry (annual). Women in Jazz is an off-beat topic, but this week’s Chosen Visionary in HOT-Seat 84 is a timely topic that should be front and center.
There are new and innovative ways for folks to consume their favorite genre of music. It comes direct from women in the music industry, and one is at the Urban Academics Roundtable. Questions on the table, like where’s the money?
So much so that she founded the organization known as Women in Jazz Global, Inc. Her mission is to promote women in music worldwide and get their fair share of the money associated with their music and songs.
HOT-Seat 84 is Dr. Joan Cartwright (Boynton Beach, Florida)
Joan Cartwright is an author, college professor, composer, podcast host, producer, and retired Blues and Jazz performer. She is also the Founder of Women in Jazz South Florida Inc, Women in Arts, Business catalogs, Musicman Magazines, and Musicwoman magazines.
Dr. Cartwright, A.K.A Diva JC has performed with her swinging brand of Jazz and blues all over the United States, France, Germany, Austria, Holland, England, Jamaica, Brazil, Mexico, Ghana, Gambia, South Africa, China, Japan, Switzerland, Italy, and Spain. Over that period, she worked with hundreds of male musicians and only six women. Diva JC wanted to bridge the gap in the male-dominated music industry.
So, in 2007, She founded Women in Jazz South Florida, Inc. to promote women musicians in Jazz, locally, nationally, and globally. Audio, archives, articles, clinics, contacts, courses, events, film, history, interviews, lectures, newsletters, research, websites, workshops, video recording, concerts, performances, and recognition. Today there are members worldwide, and it is now called Women in Jazz Global Inc.
