Rednecks, queers, and country music
Hubbs, Nadine
In her provocative new book Rednecks, Queers, and Country Music, Nadine Hubbs looks at how class and gender identity play out in one of America's most culturally and politically charged forms of popular music. Skillfully weaving historical inquiry with an examination of classed cultural repertoires and close listening to country songs, Hubbs confronts the shifting and deeply entangled workings of taste, sexuality, and class politics. In Hubbs's view, the popular phrase ""I'll listen to anything but country"" allows middle-class Americans to declare inclusive ""omnivore"" musical tastes with one.
Abstract: Suitable for students and scholars of American music, gender and sexuality, class, and pop culture, this book looks at how class and gender identity play out in one of America's most culturally and politically charged forms of popular music.
