The worse thing was watching my beautiful naive daughter being exploited by her musician producer. He was constantly telling her about the mental health of his musician wife, how difficult she was and sucking my girl into his snare. When the shit hit the fan she was thrown onto the slag heap. He career was ruined and she's had 10 years of poor mental health, taken to the edge of suicide. The control often goes beyond one person. The repercussions are very wide. Such men are insidious. If one woman is a victim especially when in involves other women, I want to make a plea for the 'other' woman/women who are also the victims and dare not speak out. They are also victims of the same predator and the outcome hard on them too when they've experienced the controlling aspects of a 'business' relationship. The silence of other musicians too who knew what was happening is awful. Like all creative industries music has a huge #metoo agenda to address
