About the Author

Jason Toynbee is Senior Lecturer in Media Studies in the Department of Sociology at The Open University. He does work on copyright and creativity, and ethnicity and the postcolonial condition. Much of his research on those issues focuses on popular music and jazz, as in his books Making Popular Music: Musicians, Institutions and Creativity (Arnold, 2000) and Bob Marley: Herald of a Postcolonial World? (Polity, 2007). Byron Dueck is University Fellow in Music at the Open University. His work focuses on the role of musical and embodied experience in constituting public cultures. The majority of his research concerns First Nations and Metis music in western Canada; other interests include Cameroonian popular music and jazz.

Reviews

'This volume about migrant musicians, listeners, and styles is essential reading for students of music and migration...it is especially timely in its focus on a significant sub-section of the discipline...[I]t covers a wide geographical and social range, a variety of styles, and offers an excellent overview of the cross-cultural issues that confront migrant urban musicians.' - Ilana Webster-Kogen, Ethnomusicology, Spring/Summer 2012 'To its credit, the volume is even-handed in covering music that resonates across the generations. It's enlightening to learn of what older Afghanis who have fled their wartorn country are tuning into...' -Leonard Nevarez on musicalurbanism.blogspot.co.uk, posted 28 June 2012
