"Edited by Simon Frith, Martin Cloonan and John Williamson, this fascinating collection of essays from both academics, practitioners and cultural facilitators brings to life the ways that popular music is used by modern Scots to explore and perform a distinctive identity. As a description of the affiliations of modern Scottish popular music, this is a persuasive and coherent collection of essays."—Jane Pettegree, Soundyngs: Conversations on the History of Scottish Music"Simon Frith, Martin Cloonan and John Williamson, as well as contributing to the book themselves, have edited a fascinating and comprehensive introduction to the history, politics and culture of popular music in Scotland. In a series of essays and interviews which are organised into three themes, Histories; Politics and Policies; and Futures and Imaginings, they lay out an examination of Scotland’s popular music within the context of Scotland being both a nation but also a part of the UK, and how that impacts on the complexity of our cultural identity, the history, and the effects of the power structures in music. Made in Scotland: Studies in Popular Music is a must have reference book for anyone interested in popular music, here in Scotland and beyond."—Sheena Macdonald, The Drouth
