Celebrating female singer-songwriters with Nashville journalist and writer, Marissa R. Moss, who has just published a ground-breaking book called 'Her Country 鈥� How the Women of Country Music Became the Success They Were Never Supposed to Be'. This programme featuring the trailblazing artists who have triumphed over inequalities and discrimination including Kacey Musgraves, Maren Morris, Carrie Underwood, Rissi Palmer and Brandy Clark.

While most of these names will be familiar to the Another Country audience, it's a different story overseas. In 2021 female artists on American Country Radio counted for as little as 10 per cent of their entire playlists. Ricky also feature some of the African-American and LGBTQ+ artists that have reached audiences and enjoyed success despite the lack of support in their home country.

You'll also hear music from the female stars of the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s who paved the way for the younger generation of music makers including Loretta Lynn, Kitty Wells, The Chicks, LeAnn Rimes and Tanya Tucker.
