In Lipstick and Leather, Kim Hawes, pioneer for women in the music industry, describes the decades she spent on the road with the likes of Elvis Costello, Rush, Black Sabbath and Motörhead.

What do Motörhead, Black Sabbath, Elvis Costello, Rush and Chumbawamba have in common? Kim Hawes, pioneering female tour manager.

Through hard work, hard partying and hard times, Kim hurled a TV through the glass ceiling of the male-dominated music industry. Sleeping on tour buses, kicking superstars offstage and pranking members of the world’s biggest rock bands, Kim has done it all.

Lipstick and Leather is no ordinary tale of life on the road.

Kim Hawes, now an educator, author, coach and mentor, has come a long way from her early days of rolling posters and selling merchandise. She was recently recognised for her achievement as a Pioneer for Women with an Honorary Fellows from UCLAN. She spent ten years of her impressive career with one of the most notorious rock bands ever, Motörhead. She was then headhunted to become one of the very first female tour managers in the world.
