Timothy Rommen analyzes Bahamian musical life as it has been influenced and shaped by the islands' location between the United States and the rest of the Caribbean; tourism; and Bahamian colonial and postcolonial history. Focusing on popular music in the second half of the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, in particular rake-n-scrape and Junkanoo, Rommen finds a Bahamian music that has remained culturally rooted in the local even as it has undergone major transformations. Highlighting the ways entertainers have represented themselves to Bahamians and to tourists, Funky Nassau illustrates the shifting terrain that musicians navigated during the rapid growth of tourism and in the aftermath of independence. 410 0$aMusic of the African Diaspora 606 $aPopular music - Bahamas - History and criticism 606 $aPopular music -- Bahamas -- History and criticism 606 $aPopular music$xHistory and criticism$zBahamas 610 $aafro bahamian. 610 $abaha men. 610 $abahamas. 610 $abahamian culture. 610 $abahamian musicians. 610 $abay street. 610 $abilby. 610 $ablind blake. 610 $acalypso. 610 $acaribbean. 610 $acarnival. 610 $acolonialism. 610 $acolony. 610 $aethnomusicology. 610 $aformer colony. 610 $afreedom. 610 $ahistory. 610 $aindependence. 610 $aislands. 610 $ajunkanoo. 610 $amusic. 610 $amusicians. 610 $anational identity. 610 $anonfiction. 610 $apopular music. 610 $apostcolonial. 610 $arake n scrape. 610 $arebellion. 610 $arepublic. 610 $arevolution. 610 $atourism. 610 $atropical. 615 4$aPopular music - Bahamas - History and criticism. 615 4$aPopular music -- Bahamas -- History and criticism. 615 0$aPopular music$xHistory and criticism 676 $a781.64097296 700 $aRommen$b Timothy$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01623922 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910826955403321 996 $aFunky Nassau$93958606 997 $aUNINA
