Welcome to the Club with DJ Paulette

30 Oct 2024 18:00

DJ Paulette is in conversation about her new book Welcome to the Club, sharing the highs, lows and lessons of a thirty-year music career.

One of the Haçienda's first female DJs, Paulette has scaled the heights of the music industry, playing to crowds of thousands all around the world, and descended to the lows of being unceremoniously benched by COVID-19, with no chance of furlough and little support from the government.

Here she tells her story, offering a remarkable view of the music industry from a Black woman's perspective.

Behind the core values of peace, love, unity and respect, dance music is a world of exclusion, misogyny, racism and classism.

But, as Paulette reveals, it is also a space bursting at the seams with powerful women.

Part personal account, part call to arms, Welcome to the Club exposes the exclusivity of the music industry while seeking to do justice to the often invisible women who keep the beat going.

Paulette will be in conversation with Désirée Reynolds.

Copies of Paulette's book will be available to buy and have signed at the event.
