Friday Figures - 7 Oct

As we are in Dublin this week, we take the opportunity to take another look at the Why Not Her? ‘Gender Disparity Data Report’ on Irish radio that came out this year. As we are consistently reminded, there are many layers to barriers in the music industry (and society at large) that go beyond gender. We were quite taken aback that in 2021, there were no Irish people of colour featuring on Ireland’s most-played 100 songs on the radio. Find other insightful figures, including the international vs. the domestic market, here.
