David Pearson holds a PhD in musicology from CUNY Graduate Center
and is an adjunct assistant professor in the music department at
Lehman College. His research focuses on American popular music of
recent decades, such as punk and rap. As a saxophonist, David has
performed twentieth-century and contemporary art music, jazz, rock,
and various improvised musics, and currently plays in the
Afrotronik funk group Digital Diaspora.
I have never read a book about the origins of the politics of punk
that includes music notation of punk songs and musicology analysis
that explores the bonds of sonics and lyrics. A singular book on
punk that even my jazz-piano-playing son would read!

Xicana in a Female Punk Band*
