- Description
- The author focuses on how women-centered bands negotiate, react, and respond to authority, masculine display, dissemination of information, and making and marketing sound recordings. She identifies herself as an indie musician, regular listener to indie music, and collector of indie zines, and she offers here interviews with indie musicians (e.g., Kim Deal, a founding member of the Pixies and The Breeders), Ladyfest organizers, and zine writers. This book specifically examines gender issues encountered in the music industry by women and men involved in women-centered bands.
