FUAIM Lecture: Dr Ioannis Tsioulakis - New Voices in Jurassic Park: Making Contemporary Popular Music in Belfast
|
Belfast is bursting with sound. Independent, original popular music creativity is audible everywhere: in its pubs and arts venues, open-air stages and repurposed buildings, bookshops and cafés. From new-folk to queer punk, and from afrobeat to experimental electronica, emerging musicians tell stories about Northern Ireland, their place in it, and the myriad routes that brought them here. And yet, this burgeoning creativity is doubly ignored. |
