There's a press gal in the music business who said to me recently, "T., do you understand women will talk to me about how fortunate you are to still have a career and you're making your sixteenth album?" I said, "I have made my own luck, I've worked hard. Have I had, of course, doors opened for me along the way? Have I had people in my corner fighting for me? Yes. I've also had arrows coming right at me, too." People don't ask the question, "Where did this singer-songwriter go?" People think maybe she married a billionaire and just rode off into the sunset, and wanted to leave the music business. No. Country music's different, but this is especially true in alternative music. The music business puts women out to pasture. (it) |
