Flock Talk with the Femme Flock
Welcome to Flock Talk, the podcast from The Femme Flock celebrating the people, creativity, community, and culture that make the jam scene what it is.
Hosted by women from across the jam scene and members of The Femme Flock community, Flock Talk tells the stories of the people who make this scene more than just the music. We sit down with artists from the bands we love, emerging women musicians, community organizers, nonprofits, creatives, and the people building something special within the scene.
From life on tour and the magic of live music to community, fashion, wellness, and the wonderfully weird culture that comes with it, we’re here for the conversations you don’t always hear and the people worth knowing.
At its core, Flock Talk is about making more room at the party: amplifying women and underrepresented voices, building community, and celebrating a scene where everyone deserves to feel like they belong.
So grab your glitter, find your flock, and flock on.
This podcast is produced in partnership with Osiris Media.

This episode, we’re joined by Emily Bass, Executive Director of FEMME HOUSE, an organization dedicated to creating opportunities for women, gender-expansive, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA+ creatives in the technical and behind-the-scenes areas of music. Emily shares how FEMME HOUSE is breaking systemic barriers in production, mixing, engineering, and DJing through free workshops, online courses, mentorship, and a thriving community.
We dive into Emily’s own journey from PR and crisis communications to leading FEMME HOUSE, the importance of representation both on stage and behind the boards, and why community is everything in today’s music landscape.
PLUS: we chat about the parallels between the jam scene and rave culture, and why good music taste is half the battle when it comes to being a great DJ.
Whether you’re an aspiring producer, a jam scene lifer, or simply curious about the future of music equity, this conversation proves that representation and community are the keys to lasting change.
