"Girls Rock Sacramento" will be held Saturday night in midtown Sacramento. It's a fundraiser to support music education for young girls. The lineup includes '80s new-wave band Missing Persons, Drop Dead Red, and the group Trophii..

Victoria Boyington is with the California Women's Music Festival. On "Insight with Beth Ruyak," Boyington said women artists are still a rarity at rock shows, and that's why young girls need a boost. 

"It ranges between six and 30 percent of women are even represented on big festival stages. We need to start creating more women who can fill those slots," Boyington said.

"Girls Rock Sacramento" will be held Saturday night at Ace of Spades.
