Queens of Sound

QUEENS OF SOUND - "A Her-story of Reggae and Dancehall" documents the long neglected female side of Reggae and Dancehall music in Jamaica. Three generations of women in the Jamaican music business tell us about their roles in the past and present, their first steps into the career, their struggle for acceptance in a male-dominated business, their life paths, and their big successes. World-famous musicians such as Marcia Griffiths, Tanya Stephens and Lady G - just to name a few, as well as women behind the scenes, for example Dr. Carolyn Cooper (Univerity of the West Indies) or Sandra Joy Alcott (founder of JAFA - Jamaica Association of Female Artists), give us an understanding of Jamaica's Reggae and Dancehall culture from a female point of view.
