An Unofficial Celebration of a Modern Icon

Dark, bold, and unapologetically original - Billie Eilish has redefined what it means to be a modern music icon. From her whisper-soft vocals to her powerful, soul-shaking belts, she has captivated millions with her genre-defying sound, raw lyrics and fearless individuality. At just 18, Billie made history by sweeping the four biggest categories at the Grammy Awards - Album of the Year, Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best New Artist - becoming the youngest artist ever to achieve this feat. She has since collected multiple Grammys, an Academy Award for her James Bond theme "No Time to Die" and global acclaim as one of the most influential musicians of her generation. With billions of streams, sold-out world tours and a fiercely dedicated fan base, her impact on pop culture is undeniable. This little book is a must-have for fans, packed with the best quotes, surprising facts and personal insights into her journey from a teenage prodigy recording in her bedroom to an international superstar. Explore the meaning behind her music, her ever-evolving style and the powerful messages she shares with the world. Whether you've been following her since "Ocean Eyes" or are just discovering her magic, The Little Guide to Billie Eilish is the ultimate guide to the mind and music of a generation's most unique voice.

The Little Book of Healing Mantras

Discover John Kander and Fred Ebb, the most artistically and commercially successful musical theatre writing team since Rodgers and Hammerstein, in a brand new way. Identifying the theatrical approach that renders their musical dramaturgy unique, this book explores their importance within, and contribution to, musical theatre history. Through their biggest hits, Cabaret (1966) and Chicago (1975), Kander and Ebb have been performed on the stage more times both within and outside of the USA than any other American musical theatre writers. Unlike Sondheim, whose work from 1964 increasingly aspired towards the avant-garde. Kander and Ebb located their projects in a nexus between art and commercial entertainment, seeking to deconstruct popular forms in order to expose their ideological function. This book investigates the full range of Kander and Ebb's collaboration from the pure comic entertainment of 70, Girls, 70 (1971) and Curtains (2006) to more overtly serious musicals such as The Kiss of the Spiderwoman (1992), The Scottsboro Boys (2010) and The Visit (2014), which were less commercially successful precisely because they addressed disturbing subjects. It explores how the difficult material inspired beautiful, though challenging, scores. It also probes how the ironic counterpointing of luscious music with witty and demotic lyrics makes complex demands of a Broadway audience, challenging its desire for escapist entertainment, devoid of critical self-reflection, to becomes complex, yet popular, masterpieces of the genre. This is the first volume to explicitly analyse the recurrent theatrical tropes and dramaturgical forms in Kander and Ebb's musicals, offering an in-depth introduction to their oeuvre.

Music and Material Culture

In the early twenty-first century we are inundated with technologies and discourses that privilege the apparently liberating immaterial aspects of digital culture. Despite, or perhaps because, of this, the making of material objects continues to be of importance in people's everyday lives. Including case studies on guitar makers, homemade recording equipment, car audio culture, and 3D printing of musical instruments, Gavin Carfoot critically examines the ways that musical objects are produced through social and cultural practices and forms of labour, in co-constitutive ways between human makers and non-human objects.

Friendship Isn't a Big Thing, It's a Million Little Things

A spectacular graphic novel about the life and times of the legendary Fela Kuti—the Pan-African frontman, multi-instrumentalist, sociopolitical powerhouse, and father of Afrobeat. In this bold and striking graphic novel, artist Jibola Fagbamiye and writer Conor McCreery team up to tell the remarkable origin story of one of Nigeria’s most famous sons, the King of Afrobeat, Fela Kuti, who rose to superstardom with his band Africa 70 in the 1970s, during a charged political period for his nation.A once-in-a-lifetime musical talent who innovated the musical genre Afrobeat, Fela was also an outspoken critic of the Nigerian military regime. Fela focuses on a pivotal moment in his life, when he and his mother Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti, the renowned Nigerian suffrage activist, were ruthlessly attacked in their own home by soldiers who suffered no repercussions for their violence. It also explores Fela’s complex relationship with women, including his mother and Sandra Izsadore, the American singer and activist who revitalize and inspired him. Over the course of his life, Fela married 27 women, fathered numerous children, and founded the Kalakuta Republic commune, where he and his band lived, declaring themselves independent from military rule.As rich and original as its subject, Fela complements the historical with the surreal, featuring parallel dream world sequences, set between this realm and the next, in which Fela receives visions about his future and the dangerous path he will have to walk.Chronicling Fela’s perilous journey to capture his destiny—to become the King of Afrobeat, and to advocate for Pan-African unity in the face of European imperialism and white supremacy—this masterful biographical graphic novel celebrates this enduring legend and his legacy, offering inspiration for our own troubled time.

What musical elements define the unmistakable, yet constantly evolving, 'U2 sound'? How is their enormously engaging music constructed? How have U2 maintained their prominent position in the  ever-shifting world of popular music? Let Me In The Sound: The Sonic Signature of U2 addresses  these questions in a three-tiered music-theoretical dissection of the band's unique sound. Endrinal begins by identifying the salient sonic characteristics that combine to form U2's distinctive musical autograph.  With those characteristics established, the book examines the various approaches to formal organization found in the band's oeuvre. Finally, detailed analyses of several songs from across the band's career demonstrate how U2 construct songs and how each member of the band contributes his own unique musical perspective to these formal designs. Endrinal's analyses reach beyond the traditional focus on melody, harmony and rhythm, drawing on new computer assisted analytical techniques to explore texture, timbre and instrumentation.  More than a study of one band, then, this book offers new analytical methods for the study of popular music.
