Since Yesterday (film)

Since Yesterday is a 2024 Scottish documentary film. It tells the story of the women who pioneered as members of all-girl bands in Scotland from the 1960s-2010s and asks the questions 'why are they not remembered?' and 'what would have happened if they were?'. It takes a critical look at the structural barriers and risks female musicians face in the music industry.

The film was funded with support from Screen Scotland and a crowd-sourced campaign.
