In the 1960s and 1970s, becoming a rock musician was fundamentally different than playing other kinds of music. It was a learned rather than a taught skill. In On Becoming a Rock Musician, sociologist H. Stith Bennett observes what makes someone a rock musician and what persuades others to take him seriously in this role. The book explores how bands form; the backstage and onstage reality of playing in a band; how bands promote themselves and interact with audiences and music professionals like DJs; and the role of performance.
H. Stith Bennett has taught at the University of Illinois, the University of Washington, the University of Missouri, and Colorado Women's College. He now lives off the grid in a cabin in Colorado, where he writes his own prose, poems, and songs.
