Description

This work examines how female rock artists Tori Amos, Sara McLachlan, Me'Shell Ndegeocello, P.J. Harvey, Courtney Love and K.D. Lang explore themes of gender and sexuality in their musical and lyrical expression. Merging cultural analysis with musicological theory, the authors examine such issues as gender, performance, the female body, race, sexuality and desire.
