Drawing on a range of sources and disciplinary frameworks, this project is designed to be both a history of the pop and rock music scenes in Melbourne from the mid-1950s to the present, and an analysis and critique of the usefulness of the concept of the 'music city' to understanding the role of popular music in the cultural economy of cities internationally. Melbourne is Australia’s premier ‘music city’, with popular music a key component of its contemporary identity and cultural economy. As governments and civic leaders around the world increasingly look to music cultures as drivers of economic development and cultural status, the project offers a timely evaluation of the utility of this cultural and economic strategy.

借鉴了一系列的资源和学科框架，该项目旨在成为墨尔本从20世纪50年代中期到现在的流行音乐和摇滚音乐场景的历史，以及对“音乐之城”概念的有用性的分析和批判，以理解流行音乐在国际城市文化经济中的作用。墨尔本是澳大利亚首屈一指的“音乐之城”，流行音乐是其当代身份和文化经济的重要组成部分。随着世界各地的政府和公民领袖越来越多地将音乐文化视为经济发展和文化地位的驱动力，该项目提供了对这种文化和经济战略效用的及时评估。
