"I've experienced sexual harassment from venue owners, promoters and people in the crowd. I was too shy to talk about these things when I was just starting out, but not anymore"

[Naomi Pohl @NaomiPohl]

Representing my LGBTQ+ colleagues strongly today. Still a difficult topic at international meetings and sadly sometimes even within the U.K. as we know. You can’t say you’re pro diversity & inclusion and then exclude certain people. You can’t pick and choose. Inclusion is for ALL

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to anyone who bought a Rock Sound magazine / bundle over the years

Out of the 5 years I spent 3.5 of them being a solo designer. Seeing everyone wear merch or excited about the finished mags made all the hard work and deadlines worth it ♥️

This should not still be happening

[meg @megmeyer]

🎁 All I want for Christmas is free legal advice and help for musicians 🎁 SO we spoke to Naomi Pohl about all the free things the Musicians' Union does for its members. If you aren't a @WeAreTheMU member, you need to look at all the great things you get from your membership.

[Not A Groupie Podcast @NotAGroupiePod]

The music industry is a male dominated industry, but the fact that Naomi Pohl was voted into @WeAreTheMU by a predominately male memberships shows men want positive change too 🔥
