The People's Bookshop is delighted to welcome Toby Manning in conversation about his new book, Mixing Pop and Politics: A Marxist History of Popular Music.
Ranging from the early 1950s to the present, Toby's political history of popular music explores the connections between popular music and political ideology and shows how -- from doo-wop to hip-hop, punk to crunk, garage to grime -- popular music has reflected and resisted the political pressures and events of its era.
Tickets are just £5, which can be applied to the cost of a signed book on the night.
Doors open at 6.30 for drinks and nibbles; the event starts at 7pm.
