'Few academic books will have the same drawing power as this one, because it deals with a subject of much interest and relevance to many beyond academia. Music is such a part of our daily lives that any book offering insights into the relevance and influence of music will make a fascinating read. This one makes for an especially delightful read, because it is written with passion and perceptive insights.' Lily Kong, National University of Singapore, Singapore 'A frequently heard cliche is that popular music is placeless. In response, Johansson and Bell have brought together fifteen chapters that collectively trace the spatialities of pop music from Uluru to Graceland, from Havana to Newfoundland. This is a must-have for those looking for the latest work on musical geographies.' Jason Dittmer, University College London, UK 'The book's originality [...] lies in its focus on contemporary genres, styles, authors and works of popular music.' International Sociology Review of Books '... this collection is an invaluable general introduction to a well-developed literature on Cultural Geography, sound and music.' Journal of Popular Music
