Shania Twain and Brandi Carlile on Teaming Up for an All-Female-Headliner Festival, and Why Women Supporting Women Is Always ‘Right on Time’
Shania Twain and Brandi Carlile sang together lfor the first time at Carlile's Girls Just Wanna Weekend festival. They discuss their mutual fandom.
I Feel Like a Woman!” wasn’t literally written to be sung along with by a nearly all-female audience, but the ’90s smash might have received its ultimate culmination when Twain brought it out as the climax of her set at Brandi Carlile ‘s Girls Just Wanna Weekend festival. You know, with all these things that we’re hearing back from Book More Women [an organization that advocates for better gender representation in the concert industry), with predatory reports from some of our festivals that are three or four days long, and sexual assaults happening, or if not that, then harassment, and overuse of drugs and alcohol… I’m not trying to be a prude about rock ‘n’ roll in general. We were talking about this before you came in, but we’ll catch you up now… There’s sisterhood, there’s motherhood, and there’s all these female relationships, especially in the industry, that I feel I’ve missed out on a lot along the way in my life, just because my career is primarily men.
