Rude Girls

Focusing on the often-overlooked role of women in the ska revival and 2 Tone label, this book explores how female musicians carved out their space in a predominantly male scene. Drawing on exclusive interviews with over 50 women from the UK ska movement of the '70s and '80s, it highlights their struggles and triumphs, showcasing their contributions to music and culture. Through themes of empowerment and sisterhood, it reveals the untold stories of those who challenged the status quo and made significant impacts in the industry.
