"We are overwhelmed by the generosity that shines through during and after these events..."
One Of One, an organisation that puts the "spotlight on women in the Australian music industry", celebrated this year's International Women's Day (IWD) with breakfast events around the country this morning.
Today marks the fifth anniversary of One Of One and their fourth year IWD breakfast event, which place in Sydney and Adelaide concurrently.
"We are so honoured to have celebrated International Women’s Day alongside almost 500 women and non-binary people across Melbourne, Sydney and for the first time, in Adelaide this year," founders Sarah Hamilton (Ditto Music) and Joanna Cameron (NYC's The Delancey) told The Music today.
"The Melbourne event was held at The Forum, and there was an incredible energy and warmth in the room. It was uplifting and powerful. Each year, the events are growing and we have excellent teams of women running them in different states. More music companies are partnering with us, presenting awards and scholarships, and supporting women in the industry.
"We are overwhelmed by the generosity that shines through during and after these events, and we thank everyone who is a part of them. The community surrounding One Of One is so inspiring to us and we are so lucky to have see it grow and flourish."
