Since the 1990s the cruise industry has become one of the largest
employers of musicians in the world. Thousands of professional
musicians work on cruise ships daily, entertaining millions of
passengers. Cruisicology: The Music Culture of Cruise Ships
provides the first in-depth account of the culture and the
industrial determinants of cruise ship music. Based on interviews
with working musicians and coauthor David Cashman's experience as a
cruise ship musician, this book investigates how music is organized
and made onboard a cruise ship. David Cashman and Philip Hayward
study the working life of musicians, why and how corporate shipping
lines include music onboard their vessels, the history of musicians
on passenger shipping, and the likely future directions of musical
entertainment within the industry. Cashman and Hayward illustrate
the positive and negative experience of artists making music every
day in confined spaces with close proximity to their audiences.
