Discwoman is a New York-based collective, booking agency, and event platform representing and showcasing women and non-binary artists in the electronic music community. It was founded in 2014 by Frankie Decaiza Hutchinson, Emma Burgess-Olson (Umfang), and Christine McCharen-Tran.[1] Discwoman aims to address issues of gender imbalance in club and festival lineups.[2][3]
Since its inaugural event at Bushwick, Brooklyn’s Bossa Nova Civic Club,[5] Discwoman has presented showcases in Boston,[6] Detroit's Movement Festival,[7] Mexico City,[8][9] Montreal,[10] Philadelphia,[11] Pittsburgh's VIA Festival,[12] San Juan,[13] Seattle's Decibel Festival,[14] and Toronto.[15]
Co-founder Hutchinson, was involved in the 2017 campaign that repealed New York's anti-dancingCabaret Law[16] claiming it contained a disproportionate targeting of black and other minority communities.[17] Hutchinson curated the Dweller Festival, promoting black underground talent in New York City.[18]
