Description - Popular Music Scenes: Regional and Rural Perspectives by Andy Bennett
This book examines regional and rural popular music scenes in Europe, Asia, North America and Australia. The book is divided into four parts.
Part 1 will focus on the spatial aspects of regional popular music scenes and how place and locality inform the perceptions and discourses of those involved in such scenes.
Part 2 focuses on the technologies and forms of distribution whereby regional and rural popular music scenes exist and, in many cases co-exist in forms of trans-local connection with other scenes.
Part 3 considers the importance of collective memory in the way that regional and rural popular music scenes are constructed in both the past and the present.
Part 4 examines themes of industry and policy, in relation to culture and music, as these impact on the nature and identity of rural and regional popular music scenes.
