Popular music scholars have long been interested in the connection between place and music. This collection brings together a number of key scholars in order to introduce readers to concepts and theories used to explore the relationships between place and music. An interdisciplinary volume, drawing from sociology, geography, ethnomusicology, media, cultural, and communication studies, this book covers a wide-range of topics germane to the production and consumption of place in popular music. Through considerations of changes in technology and the mediascape that have shaped the experience of popular music (vinyl, iPods, social media), the role of social difference and how it shapes sociomusical encounters (queer spaces, gendered and racialised spaces), as well as the construction and representations of place (musical tourism, city branding, urban mythologies), this is an up-to-the-moment overview of central discussions about place and music. The contributors explore a range of contexts, moving from the studio to the stage, the city to the suburb, the bedroom to festival, from nightclub to museum, with each entry highlighting the diverse and complex ways in which music and place are mutually constitutive.

Geoff Stahl is a Senior Lecturer in Media Studies at Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand. He is was an executive member of the International Association for the Study of Popular Music (IASPM), and a current editorial board member of the New Zealand Journal of Media Studies. He is author of several books including Understanding Media Studies (2010), and Poor But Sexy: Reflections on Berlin Scenes (2014). J. Mark Percival is Senior Lecturer in Media at Queen Margaret University, Scotland. His areas of interest and publications include local music production, music radio, and representations of popular music with a focus on speed and volume.
