Call for papers for special two-part issue titled Women in Popular 
Music: Their Musical Education and Pedagogical Inspirations, in Two 
Parts: (1) Women in WoPop (World Popular Music) and (2) Women in Popular 
Music across the Anglosphere


Guest Editor: Patricia Shehan Campbell


The aim of this two-part issue is to honor the voices of women in 
popular music across generations and cultures, their musical journeys 
from nascent to fully fledged or professional musicians, their ways of 
learning their craft, and their contributions in inspiring, influencing, 
and imparting to others the skills for engaging in popular music of 
various forms.


Representations of women in popular music and related industries remain 
low, and the chronicling of the nature of their expressive practices has 
been minimal to almost entirely absent in scholarly journals in music 
and music education. The intent of the collected articles is to open 
wide issues of gender and inclusion, and to expand the present discourse 
on teaching and learning popular music by featuring research and 
scholarship on women in popular music from across different musical 
genres, performances, and cultural practices.


The special issue will fall into two parts, with scholarly articles on:


(1) Women in WoPop (World Popular Music)—such as Umm Kulthum, Lila 
Downs, Teresa Teng, Oumou Sangare, Celia Cruz, Nana Mouskouri, and 
Sinead O’Connor (and others)

(2) Women in Popular Music across the Anglosphere of English-speaking 
cultures—such as Patsy (Cline), Aretha, Joni, Selena, Amy (Winehouse), 
Madonna, Celine, Taylor, and Beyoncé (and others)


Articles need not be artist-specific, but may well encompass topics and 
people who would likely not otherwise feature in the journal; 
international and cross-generational components are of interest as well.


We welcome research and scholarship of various methodological emphases, 
and which address but are not limited to the following themes: (a) 
women’s conceptions of and contributions to popular music within world 
communities and English-speaking cultures (such as the U.S., the UK, 
Australia, Canada, and New Zealand); (b) musical beginnings and 
developments of women popular music artists as children-to-youth via 
popular music experiences in the home/family, in the neighborhood, and 
via formal training/education; (c) the nurturing by women popular music 
artists of a younger generation of aspirants via straight-ahead 
teaching/coaching and indirect-yet-effective means of motivating young 
musicians; (d) the wider scape of women and girls in learning and 
‘doing’ popular music, as aspirants, apprentices, and emerging artists.


The Journal of Popular Music Education is a peer-reviewed journal 
published by Intellect. It seeks to define, delimit, debunk, 
disseminate, and disrupt practice and discourse in and around popular 
music education. Popular music education takes place at the 
intersections of identity realization, learning, teaching, 
enculturation, entrepreneurship, creativity, a global multimedia 
industry, and innumerable instances of music making as leisure. Through 
drawing together diverse, rigorous scholarship concerning learning in, 
through and about popular music worldwide, JPME seeks to identify, probe 
and problematize key issues in this vibrant, evolving field.


Scholarship from and across all relevant research methods and 
disciplines is welcome. Please submit manuscripts of approximately 6,000 
words (double-spaced, Times New Roman, font size 12, including 
references) by 1 December 2020 for the attention of guest editor 
Patricia Shehan Campbell via the JPME website. Please refer to the 
Intellect style guide when preparing a submission. Less traditional 
format submissions are also welcomed for the Practices and Perspectives 
section of the journal.
