Popular music museums have emerged in prominent locations worldwide, including Los Angeles, Liverpool, Seattle, Memphis, and Nashville, often characterized by expansive experiential infrastructures featuring high-tech displays of various sizes and types. These museums play a significant role in shaping and reflecting the values and priorities of popular music in the public sphere. Through their over-the-top displays, they influence and contribute to the broader entertainment industry's rise to global dominance. This book challenges the traditional notions of heritage and tourism and examines popular music museums as markers of the entertainment industry's broader impact. It explores the multiple manifestations of power across institutions and material forms and discusses how this contributes to shaping the experience of popular culture.
