On today's episode, Rachel and KCPR Content Writer and DJ Sydney Osterbauer interview four women who have been vital to the success of San Luis Obispo's music scene over the past 4 years.

------------------------------------------------

Tasha Lee, bassist from Couch Dog, has been rocking house shows in San Luis Obispo since 2019. For the past 5 years, she's helped contribute to writing and performing music meant "for dancing, crying and kissing."

Skyllar Evans, lead singer for Plywood Love, was born and raised in the Central Coast. She's watched the ebbs and flows of our music scene throughout the years and now is entrenched in it as one of the most powerful, soulful voices.

Caitlyn Shank, lead singer for Earthship, knows a thing or two about ailens. Earthship is her first band, so she brings a fresh set of eyes onto the issues and experiences that arise from being a women in a popular music scene.

Cate Armstrong is passionate about mental health advocacy and works for Transitions-Mental Health Association as an Assistant Center Supervisor. In her spare time, she writes vulnerable and raw songs about her emotional experiences as a solo artist. Cate formerly sang for Purple Hibiscus, a popular local band in San Luis Obispo during the 2021-2022 academic year.
