 Following the many debates regarding female representation in country music, Dash Radio has just set up a brand new show to celebrate the great women of country music. The two hour show is 100% female-led country music. Expect nothing but great music every weekend, from Dolly Parton to Carrie Underwood.
Inspiration for this 2 hour radio show comes from the 2019 CMT Awards when some of country music’s biggest stars made a statement. Jennifer Nettles started on the red carpet wearing a dress that stated “Equal Play” on the back & "Play our f*@#!n records, please & thank you." written on the inside of her dress. Towards the end of the award show Brandi Carlile and Tanya Tucker united to lead some of country music’s most prominent female artists in a rendition of Tucker’s legendary “Delta Dawn”. The stage was set with all female singers and this sparked the conversation. The conversation which made its way to Dash Radio and they've decided a Women of Country show was long overdue. The feature will air every Saturday from 12pm-2pm PST on The Tailgate and again on Sunday from 12pm-2pm PST on The Ranch.
