Hello Everyone
Welcome to the very 1st WILM Mothers group for crew and artists.
|
First of all, we would like to inform you that we have chosen to call it CREW MOMS, because WILM’s target group are the people working behind the scenes. However, we are also all about inclusion. Therefore we would like to include the moms and expecting moms on stage as well, as we are kind of in the same boat here whether onstage or backstage!
|
So a warm welcome to everyone with a career in the live music industry!
|
It has been a while since we launched the group. However, we are excused: Anna Gideonsson, Live sound engineer, WILM’s graphic designer and promoter of this group gave birth to her son a month too early. But everyone is now sound and doing better.
Connect with other moms in our facebook group! We would like to invite you to our Facebook group, where you have the possibility to introduce yourself, connect with other members and discuss topics that relate to motherhood and a career in live music. You can find the group here: WILM Crew Moms

But! We will also be hosting a monthly meet up online, where it will be possible to discuss different topics, as well as connect with each other across borders.
|
The first online meetup on Zoom is scheduled for WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 15TH at 10AM CET WILM Crew Moms Meetup Meeting ID: 813 0870 9477 Passcode: VEkKm6
|
There will be no set topic for this 1st meetup, as we thought we should touch base with you guys first, and hear what kind of direction you would like to see the group head off to? We would also like to have a chat about which topics could be great to bring up! We think as well that it could be ideal to have a monthly guest to kick off the meetings? However, it’s all up in the air for now, so let’s see what ideas we can come up with on Sep.15th.
|
This day will also be a chance to introduce ourselves and connect! The host for the day will be Mette Helms, Sound engineer and based in Copenhagen, Denmark. Mette is already the mom of Lucas, almost two, and is due with a little brother in November.

Please note! In the Facebook group, we will have a thread for topic suggestions for our online meetups as well as a thread for finding the best times to host the meet ups in the future so as many members as possible can participate. NB, if you would like to be part of the working group that runs this group, please send us an email at info@womeninlivemusic.eu
