Following Connected Communities established practice, the conference seeks to function as a place for dialogue between academics, independent researchers, musicians, performers, and the arts and cultural policy sectors. From brass bands to buskers to ballad singers, organ grinders to beatboxing, one-man/-person bands to flash mobs, music has long played a role in how we experience the public space of the street. In this conference we aim to contribute to the growing discourse around the role of street music in our contemporary communities and to understand its historical significance.

This conference is being organised as part of the Creative Spaces and Public Culture project at UEA, funded by the AHRC Connected Communities programme.

The conference is free although registration is essential. Registration will open on March 20, 2019 at https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/street-music-conference-tickets-58988167196 <https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.co.uk%2Fe%2Fstreet-music-conference-tickets-58988167196&data=02%7C01%7CGeorge.Mckay%40uea.ac.uk%7C7513f088e1b649a2e04108d6ae17ca17%7Cc65f8795ba3d43518a070865e5d8f090%7C0%7C0%7C636887814533734672&sdata=LO%2FG50d4unA12BT3JQjM2k3tUNvuiNG2i4fsQtlMgmM%3D&reserved=0>
