Abstract

Bumps in the Road is a collection of autobiographical stories that trace the author’s life in music. The accompanying critical preface examines notions of showing and telling, feminist approaches to autobiography, conventions of music memoir, and the nature of hybridity. The stories use personal narrative as well as photos and images to construct distinct but linked recollections from years of playing music and touring across the United States and abroad.
