- While ‘selling out’ is a familiar concept for popular music fans and writers, this is the first book-length treatment of its history and role in popular music culture. Selling Out draws on analysis of popular and trade press coverage from the 1960s to the present to understand how the phrase has been used in popular music culture and what important it communicates for musicians and fans. The book was researched and written between 2016 and 2019, and involved analysis of a large volume of press articles (over 10,000 articles analysed using a document mining platform, with a subset analysed manually).
