"This book explores how women who have experienced gender-based violence within the music industry represent and construct this violence through their creative and public-facing outputs. Analysis of three key case studies - Kesha, Lingua Ignota, and Alice Glass - demonstrates that gender-based violence influences creative productions. The representation of this abuse is identified in the artists' music, lyrics, and visual accompaniments and the incorporation of their experiences and responses to abuse in their public personas. The authors uncover what it is about the music industry itself that might facilitate or enable such experiences and perpetuate abuse"--
