Phil Collen calls out sexism in rock and praises Mexico
Rock music has long been a landscape dominated by male voices and faces, yet new sounds and talent are constantly pushing those boundaries. This reality is perhaps best illustrated by the enduring, yet often overlooked, contributions of female artists.
Guitar legend Phil Collen, known for his time with Def Leppard, recently offered high praise to the Mexican sister trio, The Warning, recognizing their significant success within a scene that remains overwhelmingly male-dominated.
Collen’s admiration stems from a deep appreciation for The Warning’s talent and their ability to command an audience. This respect was particularly felt when recalling their high-profile performance opening for Def Leppard in Mexico back in 2017.
During that performance, the sisters Daniela, Paulina, and Alejandra Villarreal showcased not only their exceptional musical ability but also their compelling stage presence, setting a powerful example for the audience.
Their appearance on the international stage served as a powerful reminder that musical excellence knows no gender lines. The Warning’s journey, from local success to international recognition, is a testament to the fact that talent will always find a way to shine, regardless of the expectations placed upon them.
