Lynch, who sat on the working group who commissioned the national review, said it was surreal that three years after she first aired her allegations the process of change had finally begun.

“I have been pushing for so long, and today I realised that I was always fighting without realising what the end result was going to be,” she said. “It has led to this moment where we are actually going to see change and have the music industry stop and listen to us and our stories.”

The review will be conducted by cultural change and gender equality leaders Alexandra Shehadie and Sam Turner who have been involved in reviews in the defence force, large corporations like Qantas as well as the NSW government.

The pair will hear stories from survivors of sexual harm, sexual harassment, and systemic discrimination in all facets of the Australian music industry including artists, managers, agents, crew, producers, labels, promoters and venues.

Lynch said the working group, which included seven women from across the spectrum of Australian music, had navigated the intricacies of the extremely fragmented industry to reach a point where the review was possible.

“This incredible group of women have worked tirelessly to ensure the industry is open to conducting this review and is open to pushing for change and creating a safer working environment in Australian music.”

An industry briefing will be held on Monday ahead of the review’s finding being handed down in June.
