In Sheffield, Creativity Flourished In The Face Of Isolation, Economic Decline And Bleak Political Circumstances, Resulting In Some Of BritainS Most Groundbreaking And Singular Music. But The RegionS Ingrained Humility And Dogged Stoicism Means It Has Never Been Documented Or Celebrated To The Level Of More Hubristic Cities.In Groovy, Laidback And Nasty, Acclaimed Sheffield Journalist Daniel Dylan Wray Sets Out To Remedy This, Telling The Story Of The CityS Diy Spirit And The Musical Visionaries And Innovators Who Helped Build Its Inimitable Legacy. Exhaustively Researched And Spanning Almost Seven Decades, It Features Over 150 Interviews With The Likes Of Pulp, Arctic Monkeys, The Human League, Cabaret Voltaire, Self Esteem And Richard Hawley, Along With Countless Others.Both A Compelling Cultural Study And An Unapologetic Love Letter To The City, This Finally Is The Definitive Musical History Sheffield So Richly Deserves.
