Join Rachel Alice Johnson ('Kohla') and Josephine Sillars as they breakdown Vick Bain's 'Counting the Music Industry' research, inequalities within playlisting and spotlight articles published in The Times, The Glasgow Guardian and The Scotsman. Having spoken at leading UK and Ireland institutions including The University of Edinburgh, University College Cork, Glasgow School of Art, Point Blank University London, Leeds Conservatoire and The University of Aberdeen, Popgirlz research has been published by PRS M Magazine, as well as features in The Scots Magazine,The Skinny and Bella Caledonia. Popgirlz Scotland's main objective is friendship-building between members to tackle sexism within the music industry.

Popgirlz Scotland is a support group for female/female-identifying/trans artists in the Scottish music scene, which now has over 175 members. Rachel created the group in late 2019 with the idea of making a safe, motivating space for womxn artists. It includes collaborative Facebook and Instagram pages where members can help and support one another, and Rachel organizes social events where members can meet, collaborate and become friends.
