Sound Tracks
is the first comprehensive book on the new geography of popular music,
examining the complex links between places, music and cultural
identities. It provides an interdisciplinary perspective on local,
national and global scenes, from the 'Mersey' and 'Icelandic' sounds to
'world music', and explores the diverse meanings of music in a range of
regional contexts.
In a world of intensified globalisation, links
between space, music and identity are increasingly tenuous, yet places
give credibility to music, not least in the 'country', and music is
commonly linked to place, as a stake to originality, a claim to
tradition and as a marketing device. This book develops new perspectives
on these relationships and how they are situated within cultural and
geographical thought.
