Xylo Aria & The Power of Producing Your Own Music

Founder of Music Production for Women chats with host Thea Wood

I met today’s guest through Chris Dalla Riva of Can’t Get Much Higher on Substack. She was offering a $10,000 grant opportunity for women who want to learn music production.

That definitely caught my attention and the more I learned about her work, the more intrigued I became. She was born in India but moved to Australia where she writes and records music and founded online school Music Production for Women in 2019. She also hosts the MPW podcast.

Since then, she’s helped over 7,000 women from 120 countries pursue their music production Dreams.

She’s the production wonder from down under, meet Xylo Aria!
