This book draws from a rich history of scholarship about the
relations between music and cities, and the global flows between
music and urban experience. The contributions in this collection
comment on the global city as a nexus of moving people, changing
places, and shifting social relations, asking what popular music
can tell us about cities, and vice versa. Since the publication of
the first Sounds and the City volume, various movements, changes
and shifts have amplified debates about globalization. From the
waves of people migrating to Europe from the Syrian civil war and
other conflict zones, to the 2016 "Brexit" vote to leave the
European Union and American presidential election of Donald Trump.
These, and other events, appear to have exposed an anti-globalist
retreat toward isolationism and a backlash against multiculturalism
that has been termed "post-globalization." Amidst this, what of
popular music? Does music offer renewed spaces and avenues for
public protest, for collective action and resistance? What can the
diverse histories, hybridities, and legacies of popular music tell
us about the ever-changing relations of people and cities?
