Corin Tucker of Heavens To Betsy and Sleater-Kinney sat down with Fabi Reyna and she brought her guitar. You’ve heard snippets of that conversation throughout the podcast, but we thought you might like to hear more about Corin’s experiences in Olympia, how her bands started and how she developed her unique sound.
Thirty years ago, a movement called riot grrrl started in the Pacific Northwest. It wasn't just music – it was politics, feminism, culture and zines. And we're still feeling its effects today. Starting a Riot tells the history of riot grrrl: why it started in the Pacific Northwest, and what its lasting impact has been. And we focus on the stories that haven’t often been told as part of the history of the movement. We’ll hear from people on the margins, people who felt left out, and the people who insisted on being part of the conversation anyway.
