I Wanna Wrock!: The World Of Harry Potter-Inspired "Wizard Rock" And Its Fandom

Wizard rock--music based on the Harry Potter series by J. K. Rowling--is an idiosyncratic subgenre, with band names like Harry and the Potters, Draco and the Malfoys and The Whomping Willows. Drawing on input from insiders and fans, and interviews with more than a dozen wizard rockers, this book explores the history and aesthetics of the movement. An appendix lists dozens of popular bands, members and discographies: a must-have for fandom scholars and wizard rock devotees alike.
