Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In country music, the men might dominate the radio waves. But it’s women—like Maren Morris, Mickey Guyton, and Kacey Musgraves—who are making history. This is the full and unbridled story of the past twenty years of country music seen through the lens of these trailblazers’ careers—their paths to stardom and their battles against a deeply embedded boys’ club, as well as their efforts to transform the genre into a more inclusive place—as told by award-winning Nashville journalist Marissa R. Moss. For the women of country music, 1999 was an entirely different universe—a brief blip in time, when women like Shania Twain and the Chicks topped every chart and made country music a woman’s world. But the industry, which prefers its stars to be neutral, be obedient, and never rock the boat, had other plans. It wanted its women to “shut up and sing”—or else. In 2021, women are played on country radio as little as 10 percent of the time, but they’re still selling out arenas, as Kacey Musgraves does, and becoming infinitely bigger live draws than most of their male counterparts, creating massive pop crossover hits like Maren Morris’s “The Middle,” pushing the industry to confront its racial biases with Mickey Guyton’s “Black Like Me,” and winning heaps of Grammy nominations. Her Country is the story of how in the past two decades, country’s women fought back against systems designed to keep them down and created entirely new pathways to success. It’s the behind-the-scenes story of how women like Kacey, Mickey, Maren, Miranda Lambert, Rissi Palmer, Brandi Carlile, and many more have reinvented their place in an industry stacked against them. When the rules stopped working for these women, they threw them out, made their own, and took control—changing the genre forever, and for the better.

Download or read book The Comprehensive Country Music Encyclopedia written by Country Music Magazine (Périodique) and published by Crown. This book was released on 1994 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Country music has come of age. It has a rich history in American culture, and its story is well told in this definitive encyclopedia, written with verve and insight by the editors of America's leading and most popular country music magazine. The background of all the major -- and minor -- performers in country music, their greatest hits, fascinating anecdotes about their childhoods, their rise to (or fall from) fame, the truth behind publicity releases and general rumor -- it's all here, from Roy Acuff and Billy Ray Cyrus to Patsy Cline and Reba McEntire. The Comprehensive Country Music Encyclopedia offers a fresh, absorbing portrait of country music from its folkloric origins to its present status as the popular music of choice for 42 percent of the adult population, according to industry estimates. Indeed, in the past decade, the country music audience has tripled. Between 1988 and 1990, sales of country records jumped 56 percent as sales of rock-'n'-roll records slumped 5 percent. Combining more than six hundred short descriptive entries with longer evaluative articles, the encyclopedia is informative, engaging, and a pleasure to read. The critical events and individuals that have shaped country music are all here in one indispensable volume. More than a reference book to be consulted simply for the dates or details of a particular artist's hits or career, the encyclopedia offers a virtual social history of country music. It distinguishes itself not only by the unassailable authority of its contributors -- the most knowledgeable and gifted writers in this field -- but by its in-depth portraits of country music's pioneers and contemporary stars. Individual entries are placedwithin a larger historical and musical context. Linking discrete facts, dates, and events through what amount to interpretive essays, The Comprehensive Country Music Encyclopedia presents the overarching themes and musical ideas that have animated the landscape of country music. An additional feature of the encyclopedia is the more than six hundred photographs, many rarely seen. These superb photographs convey the social and cultural spirit of the artists depicted. Together with the compelling text, the encyclopedia is certain to engage the curiosity, interests, and passions of every reader, and of every fan.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in its sixth decade, country music studies is a thriving field of inquiry involving scholars working in the fields of American history, folklore, sociology, anthropology, musicology, ethnomusicology, cultural studies, and geography, among many others. Covering issues of historiography and practice as well as the ways in which the genre interacts with media and social concerns such as class, gender, and sexuality, The Oxford Handbook of Country Music interrogates prevailing narratives, explores significant lacunae in the current literature, and provides guidance for future research. More than simply treating issues that have emerged within this subfield, The Oxford Handbook of Country Music works to connect to broader discourses within the various fields that inform country music studies in an effort to strengthen the area's interdisciplinarity. Drawing upon the expertise of leading and emerging scholars, this Handbook presents an introduction into the historiographical narratives and methodological issues that have emerged in country music studies' first half-century.

Download or read book The Country Reader written by Paul Kingsbury and published by Vanderbilt University Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A selection of the best writing and photography published in the 25-year history of the most influential magazine devoted to country music. The great George Jones--so taciturn in conversation, so expressive in song--revealed in a no-holds-barred profile by Nick Tosches. Elvis Presley's explosive first year of stardom considered afresh by Peter Guralnick. The seminal 1927 Bristol, Tennessee, recording sessions (during which the Carter Family and Jimmie Rodgers were discovered) examined and explained by Charles K. Wolfe. The songwriting of Hank Williams appraised by novelist Lee Smith. These are among the highlights to be found in The Country Reader, an anthology of articles, reviews, and photographs originally published in the Journal of Country Music. Established in 1971, the Country Music Foundation's Journal has quietly acquired an unmatched reputation for publishing some of the most eloquent and thoroughly researched articles available on the subject of country music. Its contributors have included the most respected journalists and historians writing about American music. Among the other notables whose work appears in The Country Reader are Roy Blount, Jr., Greil Marcus, Robert K. Oermann and Mary A. Bufwack, and Douglas B. Green (a.k.a. Ranger Doug of the western group Riders in the Sky). In addition to collecting outstanding writing about the subject, this book functions as a kind of country primer. Taken together, the articles collected in The Country Reader offer a rough outline of country music history, stretching from the earliest recordings on up to the recent careers of Tanya Tucker and Alan Jackson. Along the way, articles touch on monumental figures (Bill Monroe, Patsy Montana, Hank Williams, Elvis Presley) and important sub-genres within country music, such as western swing and the singing cowboy phenomenon. Reviews of Bill C. Malone's revised version of Country Music U.S.A (reviewed by Bill Ivey) and a trio of recent star autobiographies (reviewed by Bob Allen) help provide an overarching framework for the various figures discussed. The Country Reader also includes several outstanding photographers whose work was originally published in the magazine. Their striking photos complement the lively text and tell their own eloquent stories. Finally, as an aid to researchers, librarians, and longtime subscribers, The Country Reader includes comprehensive subject and author listings for all articles published in the Journal of Country Music between 1971 and 1995. This is a book that belongs in the hands and libraries of every fan of country music.

Here are the stories of the people who made country music into such an integral part of our nation’s culture. We feel lucky to have had Bill Malone as an indispensable guide in making our PBS documentary; you should, too.” —Ken Burns and Dayton Duncan, Country Music: An American Family Story From reviews of previous editions: “Considered the definitive history of American country music.” —Los Angeles Times “If anyone knows more about the subject than [Malone] does, God help them.” —Larry McMurtry, from In a Narrow Grave “With Country Music USA, Bill Malone wrote the Bible for country music history and scholarship. This groundbreaking work, now updated, is the definitive chronicle of the sweeping drama of the country music experience.” —Chet Flippo, former editorial director, CMT: Country Music Television and CMT.com “Country Music USA is the definitive history of country music and of the artists who shaped its fascinating worlds.” —William Ferris, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, former chairman of the National Endowment for the Humanities and coeditor of the Encyclopedia of Southern Culture Since its first publication in 1968, Bill C.
