Join Shain Shapiro as he launches his book in one of his favorite music cities in the world – Denver. Shain will be joined onstage with a number of leading experts and agents of change to discuss the book, its themes and how they apply to Denver. Shain will also happily sign books available for purchase from Mutiny.
About the book:
This Must Be the Place introduces and examines music’s relationship to cities. Not the influence cities have on music, but the powerful impact music can have on how cities are developed, built, managed and governed. Told in an accessible way through personal stories from cities around the world — including London, Melbourne, Nashville, Austin and Zurich — This Must Be the Place takes a truly global perspective on the ways music is integral to everyday life but neglected in public policy. Arguing for the transformative role of artists and musicians in a post-pandemic world, This Must Be The Place not only examines the powerful impact music can have on our cities, but also serves as a how-to guide and toolkit for music-lovers, artists and activists everywhere to begin the process of reinventing the communities they live in.
