After a looooooong time in limbo for various reasons (COVID being chief among them, and then some legal things publisher-side; I’m sure it sounds more intriguing than it was in actuality), my chapter is finally about to appear in the forthcoming Routledge volume Interrogating Popular Music and the City, edited By Shane Homan, Catherine Strong, Seamus O’Hanlon, and John Tebbutt.

My chapter, which I’ve now presented at a couple of conference – most recently the 2023 Chicago Punk Scholars network meeting last summer – is called “Ground-Truthing DC Punk History in Adams–Morgan.” It was largely inspired by the punk walking tour I ran for the 2019 AAG meeting. It’s at Chapter 12, sandwiched in between what promise to be two great Melburnian (Melbournian?) chapters, the former of which co-authored by Cath Strong and Sam Whiting, two of my favorite Aussie colleagues.

The link to pre-order the hardcover will open on May 13th, so tell your institutional libraries!
