Music, a man's business? Forget it. Already in the 7th century BC, the Greek poetess Sappho wrote love lyrics that still capture the imagination today.
Since then, the Pantheon of pop culture has been densely populated with women who have shaped our contemporary music: from Aretha Franklin to Janis Joplin, from Blondie to Madonna, from Patti Smith to PJ Harvey, from Adèle to Angèle. All women who held their own and more in an often male-dominated music world.
'That’s What She Sang' is a musical journey, in which powerhouse singers Janne Blommaert and Naomi Sijmons, together with Kristo (Kristiaan Deruytter), celebrate their admiration for iconic female performers and authors. They take you through all the beauty that these women have added to our music history.
Backed by a tasteful backing band, they pick the highlights from a rich repertoire: music that was written by women, recorded on record, and sung.
