  • How to Use Inclusion Riders to Increase Gender Diversity in the Music Industry
    Seton Hall University eRepository @ Seton Hall Law School Student Scholarship Seton Hall Law 2019 Can't Hold Us Down”1: How to Use Inclusion Riders to Increase Gender Diversity in the Music Industry Laura Kozel Follow this and additional works at: https://scholarship.shu.edu/student_scholarship Part of the Law Commons Recommended Citation Kozel, Laura, "Can't Hold Us Down”1: How to Use Inclusion Riders to Increase Gender Diversity in the Music Industry" (2019). Law School Student Scholarship. 1019. https://scholarship.shu.edu/student_scholarship/1019 ABSTRACT Despite improvements in female visibility and a number of movements pushing for equality in recent years, gender imbalance continues to plague the world of entertainment. While strides have been made to achieve parity in the film industry, little progress has been made to achieve the same in music where the disproportionality of females is even worse. Females are chronically underrepresented across virtually all aspects of music, both on-stage and off-stage, whether it be as musicians or as executives, which subsequently effects the amount of nominations, as well as awards that females in music receive. The implementation of inclusion riders in Hollywood has demonstrably improved female representation in popular films, but until now inclusion riders have not been applied to the music industry. This paper explores the application of inclusion riders to the music industry in order to remedy a long-standing history of female exclusion, as well as increase visibility for the vast number of talented females in the music industry that deserve the same opportunities and recognition, but until now have remained invisible.

Firefly Music Festival 2017 in Dover, Delaware, reached by DART #301 bus, is said to have attracted 90,000 fans. It’s time again to ride a bus, or train, to a music festival Dozens of multi-day music festivals beckon during summer 2017. Ranging from psychedelically spotlighted rock music events, where performers and audience both jump around and wave their hands into the air, to those where the audience sits quietly as a full-fledged symphony orchestra plays classical music, many, if not most, of them are readily reachable by public transportation. The following pages of this special Music Festival Supplement focus on popular jazz, rock and classical music festivals and how to get to them via public transportation. Getting particular attention is the Firefly Music Festival, a four-day rock music fest in Dover, Delaware, attended by Grampa, who rode there by SEPTA train and DART First State bus.
