To date there has been a significant gap in existing knowledge
about the social history of music in Britain from 1950 to the
present day. The three volumes of Live Music in Britain address
this gap and do so through a unique prism-that of live music. The
key theme of the books is the changing nature of the live music
industry in the UK, focused upon popular music but including all
musical genres. Via this focus, the books offer new insights into a
number of other areas including the relationship between commercial
and public funding of music; changing musical fashions and tastes;
the impact of changing technologies; the changing balance of power
within the music industries; the role of the state in regulating
and promoting various musical activities within an increasingly
globalised music economy; and the effects of demographic and other
social changes on music culture. Drawing on new archival research,
a wide range of academic and non- academic secondary sources,
participant observation and a series of interviews with key
personnel, the books have the potential to become landmark works
within Popular Music Studies and broader cultural history. The
third volume covers the period from Live Aid to Live Nation (1985-
2015).
