Summary:"Popular Musicology and Identity consists of original essays in honour of Stan Hawkins, whose work has paved new paths for studying popular music's entwinement with gender, sexuality, ethnicity, class, locality, and a range of other factors. In the new millennium, popular musicological approaches have proliferated and evolved alongside major shifts in the music industry and popular culture. Placing primacy on mapping sociocultural structures against the particularities of musical aesthetics, this book defines popular musicology as less characterised by the musical idioms or historical periods that are studied or the methodological tools that are employed, and more so by a willingness to attend to the plural analytical and interpretive possibilities afforded by musical experiences.
