Gender in contemporary jazz worlds—from discriminatory processes to measures making a difference
musicians and industry professionals about their experiences.Through these conversations, we continue to hear the same stories: recent experiences so familiar to those that we (and others) have captured during many years of research and writing.And in scratching the surface of gender equity initiatives, we too often uncover continuing unreflective practices, men-dominated networks, tokenism, hyper-sexualization, and gendered barriers to access.Wi…
Riffs: An Experiment in Writing about Researching, and Publishing on Popular Music
RIFFS is a magazine created by a writing group at Birmingham City University. The publication emerged as a space to critically consider the ways in which we communicate research. As we wrote, we realised that by writing fiction, poetry, or by creating new forms of writing that grew out of our research, we were able to more clearly communicate our observations and ideas about popular music
Riffs: Un experimento en la escritura de investigación y publicación sobre música popular
RIFFS es una revista que nace en grupo de escritura en Birmingham City University. La publicación sirve para pensar críticamente las formas en que se comunica la investigación académica. Mientras sus integrantes escribían, se dieron cuenta que mediante la ficción, la poesía o la creación de nuevas formas de escritura que surgían desde la investigación, podían comunicar más claramente sus observaciones e ideas sobre la música popular
‘There are no other women making this kind of music’: The intersections of gender, musical role, and musician location through jazz promotion in Ireland
In this article, I highlight how promoters are both reinforcing and attempting to intervene into gendered barriers to accessing a successful jazz career on the island of Ireland. This discussion is based on initial data from an ongoing four-year Research Ireland funded project, Improvising Across Boundaries (2023–2027), and provides clear evidence of a gender imbalance at four major festivals and the largest promoter of improvised music in Irelan…

Crisis as a Catalyst for Change: Covid-19, Spatiality and the UK Live Music Industry
Since the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic, live music spaces – and the practices which produce them as economically viable – have found themselves in crisis. In spite of a UK government announcement on the 25th of July 2020 which allocated £2.25 million to support 150 music venues across the country, the processes of allocation, the conditions under which this emergency funding is allocated, and capacity to secure medium-to-long-term sustainabili…
Gender politics, UK jazz festivals and Covid-19: Maintaining the momentum of change during a time of crisis
Music festivals offer a valuable glimpse into the state of the current musical landscape. Through them we can follow the career trajectories of particular artists, spot genre trends and divergences, identify connections and differences, and make sense of emerging scenes. Equally, music festivals lay bare the continued inequalities that exist; inclusions and absences are starkly visible in festival line-ups, and marketing and communications provid…
Extended play: A history of listenings
This article tells a story. And this story does not recall heroic jazz greats or live jazz events-from which many jazz stories emerge-but it follows a history of listenings and the journey of a record through the lives that it touches. It does, however, include some music, although it might not be the music that you expect. Yet it is about jazz. And women, and the everyday. And how all these things intertwine and offer us a way to think different…
The meaning of the music venue: Historicizing the Click Club
This article focuses on a venue/music night in 1980s Birmingham called the ‘Click Club’. The history of the club is documented via a critical account of a 2016 exhibition entitled ‘Is There Any One Out There’, which celebrated the venue and the many bands that performed there. It is noted that since the club’s demise, Birmingham has gone through a process of physical and cultural regeneration, celebrating some of its local icons such as Black Sab…

Gender inequality is universally understood to be a continued problem in the music industry.

The book focuses on three key areas: music education;…

China's relations with African nationals have changed dramatically over the past decade. African oil now accounts for more than 30% of China's oil imports, and China is Africa's second-largest single-country trading partner, as well as a leading lender and infrastructure investor on the continent. Yet these developments are bringing challenges, not only for Africa and the West, but for China as well. This book examines these challenges, consideri…
