FEATURES

Meiko

  • There are those few special times when you find an artist who you know has the talent, longevity, and spirit that you will be talking about them ten, twenty years from now. It is more of a treat when you can meet them at the infancy of their career. Meiko is that rare gem, who, if I was a gambler, would put all my chips in for. Why?

Odetta - In Remembrance

  • Odetta is "Queen of American Folk Music" and much, much more. She has been playing for over fifty years. In going through each decade of Odetta's career one is struck by the high points. They're all high. Odetta was active during the Civil Rights Movement and continues to be active today.

Schuyler Fisk

  • "I certainly have a growing list of musicians I'd love to work with, but to pick just one would be rough."

 

CD REVIEWS

bess rogers
Bess Rogers – Decisions Based On Information
Brooklyn based Bess Rogers is an artist you’ve probably heard and never known it

mrgnome
Deliver This Creature by Mr. Gnome
Describing Mr. Gnome a reviewer quickly runs out of things to say.

 

INTERVIEWS

Mr. Gnome

  • FEMMUSIC has long been a fan of two-piece bands from Mr. Airplane Man, Dresden Dolls, and Clatter. It is no surprise that the latest band to attract our attention is another one.

Jill Stevenson

  • "A big change would for the record labels to give an artist control of their career, the music they are writing, and how it is marketed."

Words from the Editor’s Desk

            While our official anniversary is a few months away, it is definitely time to celebrate. FEMMUSIC started before the dot com bust and we saw many competitors and friends swept away by it. Ten years ago we were looking at Napster, and MP3.com with awe as RIAA began the witchhunt. We remember long conversations with CDBaby, MusesMuse, Indiegrrl, and many others about what lay ahead. We didn’t know. Click here to read the rest
