Description

Explore the hidden history of jazz in the United Kingdom with this groundbreaking book from the Ashgate Popular and Folk Music Series. Since the genre first arrived in Britain around 1920, Black British musicians have been a driving force in the musical landscape. This work reveals their major contributions and the long-standing presence of these artists in venues ranging from large dance halls to small, intimate clubs. Beyond a simple history, this book examines the cultural significance of race and the concept of musical hybridity. It traces the roots of Black British music long before mainstream acts like Steel Pulse, Soul II Soul, or Dizzee Rascal gained popularity. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of how these musicians shaped the development of jazz in the UK and how their performances influenced the broader musical evolution of the country.
