[ecrea] New book: The Late Voice

I'm pleased to announce the publication of my new book, which may be of
interest to list members.

*The Late Voice: Time, Age and Experience in Popular Music* (Bloomsbury
Academic)

Popular music artists, as performers in the public eye, offer a
privileged site for the witnessing and analysis of ageing and its
mediation. The Late Voice undertakes such an analysis by considering
issues of time, age, memory, innocence and experience in modern popular
song. At the heart of the study are six extended case studies of singers
and songwriters – Ralph Stanley, Frank Sinatra, Leonard Cohen, Bob
Dylan, Neil Young and Joni Mitchell – whose work is discussed in
relation to particular performance traditions and the articulation of
lateness in various forms.
