Heloise Letissier of Christine and the Queens has praised the improved diversity in the music industry, but has admitted that she would like to see more “female sound engineers”.
Over the decades, the music industry has been typically male-dominated only in recent years, this a problem that artists have been working to amend. More and more talented female artists have been taken to big stages and this is something that Letissier commends.
“The pop landscape is filled with different representations of femininity, which I appreciate,” she told BBC Music after her Glastonbury performance. “You have Solange, Billie Eilish, Beyoncé. You have many different ways to be a woman in the industry, and I think that’s really cool.
“I think the next step to take it even further would be to have more women having really technical jobs, like female sound engineers, female producers. That’s the next step to reach at some point.”
