Today, in a world traditionally dominated by male artists, women have a stronger influence on popular music than ever before. Yet, not since the late nineteen-nineties has there been a major work that acknowledges and pays tribute to the female artists who have contributed to, defined, and continue to make inroads in music. In WOMEN WHO ROCK, writer and professor of journalism and new media Evelyn McDonnell leads a team of women rock writers and pundits in an all-out celebration of 106 of the greatest female musicians. Organized chronologically, the book profiles each artist and places her in the context of both her genre and the musical world at large. Sidebars throughout recall key moments that shaped both the trajectory of music and how those moments influenced or were influenced by women artists. With full-color illustrated portraits by women artists, Women Who Rock will be THE long-awaited gift book for every musicfan, feminist, and female rocker, young and old.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 258mmItem Length: 208mmItem Width: 42mmItem Weight: 1565gAuthor: Evelyn McDonnellGenre: Music Dance & TheatreTopic: Society & Culture, Gender Sex & RelationshipsRelease Year: 2018 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
