Following multiple allegations against Australian promoter Dave Cutbush, the director of touring company Life Is Noise has been let go.
Jack Midalia, who has been co-director of the company since the start of the year, released the following statement via Facebook.
The statement follows repeated calls for a boycott of Life Is Noise tours, including for acts Sleep and Chelsea Wolfe, on social media.
Following the announcement of Dave Cutbush’s employment termination, Brisbane’s Siberian Hell Sounds announced they will be donating their $200 fee (from a show in 2016) to a women’s shelter.
The news comes just days after more than 900 women in the music industry signed the widely reported #meNOmore Open Letter, to demand zero tolerance for sexual harassment, violence, objectification and sexist behaviours.
