[ecrea] New book: Gender and Rock

Sat Aug 12 08:21:35 GMT 2017






I’m happy to announce the publication of my new (text)book, /Gender and Rock /(Oxford UP).

/Gender and Rock/ introduces readers to how gender operates in multiple sites within rock culture, including its music, lyrics, imagery, performances, instruments, and business practices. Additionally, it explores how rock culture, despite a history of regressive gender politics, has provided a place for musicians and consumers to experiment with alternate identities and ways of being. Drawing on feminist and queer scholarship in popular music studies, musicology, cultural studies, sociology, performance studies, literary analysis, and media studies, /Gender and Rock/ provides readers with a survey of the topics, theories, and methods necessary for understanding and conducting analyses of gender in rock culture. Via an intersectional approach, the book examines how the gendering of particular roles, practices, technologies, and institutions within rock culture is related to discourses of race, sexuality, age, and class.

/Gender and Rock /is available via Oxford UP’s website (link below) as well as Amazon.
