A perhaps vain attempt to clear John Mayer’s name of a brief list of charges
The 1990s was perhaps the last great decade to be a woman in the music industry. That’s not to say we don’t have amazing women making music now — we do. But the ’90s gave us the riot grrrl, Lilith Fair, and a plethora of female-fronted acts. Today,…
