So Which Band is Your Boyfriend in?

So, Which Band is Your Boyfriend in? explores the real-life experiences of a wide range of non-male participants in the UK’s DIY and underground music scenes. Through a series of interviews - examining both positive and negative experiences - the film considers what can be done to make music more accessible to everyone, regardless of gender. Presented in partnership with Nice As Pie Race Festival, a female collective promoting fun, kindness, pies and punk, proceeds will be donated to Equaliser and Female Magik at Music:Leeds.

‘[The film] starts with all the great things about being in a band and being part of a scene. There are some really positive things, but we also go into the negatives – the challenges, the barriers, the difficult experiences people have had. I end the film by looking at change — what’s already beginning to change, how we can make change and it ends with some inspirational messages. I wanted to show people that being part of music can have its challenges when you’re a woman, but it can also be really great!’

Director Suzy Harrison, from an interview with Kerrang!
