Inspired by creator and host Carmel Holt’s own 25 year career in radio, and lifetime devoted to music, SHEROES is a podcast that amplifies womxn’s voices in song and conversation. As the third production under the SHEROES name, following her syndicated public radio show SHEROES Radio, and SHEROES: Mixtape Memoir (Sonos Radio), the SHEROES podcast on Talkhouse acts as kind of creative lab, expanding to include mini-episodes that highlight the intersectional feminist heart of SHERO interviews, live tapings, roundtables and more. Carmel’s approach continues to be guided by a fierce commitment to diversity and inclusivity, showcasing a wide range of guests sharing their experiences spanning genres and generations, with a passion for amplifying new voices while recognizing and celebrating the womxn who paved the way.
Carlotta Casials and Ana Perrote are best friends and co-founders of the Spanish garage-punk-pop band Hinds, and they join Carmel Holt this week to share their story, which saw them rise to stardom, release three albums, and then suddenly find themselves without a label, or management, and the dissolution of their lineup as their drummer and bass player departed the band. Their latest album Viva Hinds! is the result of their recommitment to each other and to the spirit that originally inspired them to start the band over a decade ago.
