Femmes to the Front with Laura Regan

Sounding Out with Izzy: A Grrrl's Two Sound Cents Podcast

For today's episode, I chat with Laura B. Regan, the founder of The Footlight Underground, a live music community space owned and operated by queer women and genderfluid folks. Laura and I discuss the origins of Footlight and her mission to spotlight the best of New York underground music. We also discuss The Footlight's packed Pride programming this year, the lasting effects of pandemic woes, and how the general public can keep their local community-supported art spaces afloat in a post-2020 world.
