Description
Frock Rock: Women Performing Popular Music is the first ethnographic study dedicated to women's role in popular music-making. Authored by a sociologist with personal experience playing in bands since the punk era, this book provides a deep look into the musical landscape from the late 1970s through the mid 1990s. Based on over 100 in-depth interviews and participant observation, the research focuses on women instrumentalists in both female and mixed bands. This study offers unique perspectives from influential figures including Skin from Skunk Anansie, Debbie Smith from Echobelly, Candida Doyle from Pulp, Gail Greenwood from Belly and L7, Natasha Atlas from Transglobal Underground, and Vie Subversa from Poison Girls. It is an essential resource for understanding the history and social dynamics of women in rock music.
