Over the weekend, Cherry Glazerr shared a Facebook put up outlining the sexism and disrespect they’ve confronted on the highway from numerous venues’ stage managers and employees. “The amount of sexism that my band and sound engineer/tour manager face on the road is simply unreal sometimes,” they wrote. “It’s outrageous. We walk into a venue and people look the other way. They treat us with open hostility. They ignore us, call us names.”
The band continued by saying that every time they ask venue employees for assist, “they roll their eyes and laugh at us, as if to say ‘of course you need help.’ When in fact it’s their job to help us. Any band. It makes me sick, fills me with a rage that I know can’t be healthy for me.” Find their full assertion beneath.
