"Sometimes it's also hard to know if people are treating you a certain way because of your age or the fact that you're starting out rather than the fact that you're a woman."

Women are killing it in the music industry, and song lovers couldn't be happier! In our column, #WomenCrushWednesday, each week, we'll feature an awesome lady whose tunes are blowing up our playlists and ask them about their musical journey.

BAUM has made a splashy debut at a time when strong women singer-songwriters are absolutely vital. Her coming-of-age is chartered across the deeply personal songs, tackling issues from cat-calling to identifying as a queer musician. She tells us about her experience in the industry, her favorite song from the EP, and much more!
