Women's Music
January 1970 to December 1995
Women's Music - (also sometimes known as wimmin's or wombyn's music), was really a euphemism for music made by lesbians. Introduced in the 1970s and popular throughout the 1980s, many American lesbian singer-song-writers' music reached Birmingham via WRPM (Women's Revolutions Per Minute). Caroline Hutton, who ran WRPM, also organised and promoted concerts and tours for some of the artists, including Meg Christian, Holly Near, and the Australian Judy Small.
