From dazzling electronic futurism to pioneering post-punk, via pop, metal, bassline, bleep techno and generation-defining indie rock, Sheffield has long been a crucible for world-leading music. In Groovy, Laidback and Nasty, acclaimed Sheffield journalist Daniel Dylan Wray tells the story of the city’s DIY spirit and the musical visionaries and innovators who helped build its inimitable legacy.
Spanning seven decades and with over 150 new interviews – including Richard Hawley, Arctic Monkeys, Self Esteem, Pulp, The Human League, Cabaret Voltaire, Warp Records and many more – Daniel’s book is the definitive musical history Sheffield so richly deserves.
