BGSU Conference: Electric Guitar in Popular Culture, March 27-28

The electric guitar will be the rock star at the “Electric Guitar in Popular Culture” conference at BGSU March 27-28.

The conference, which is being hosted in part by the Department of Popular Culture, will consist of a combination of scholarly presentations and performances.

“During the two-day forum, academics, professionals, performers, hobbyists and fans will come together to highlight and celebrate this iconic instrument,” said conference co-organizer and ACS Ph.D alumnus Dr. Matthew Donahue, in BGSU’s Department of Popular Culture.

“Both popular culture and popular music are linked to the electric guitar,” Donahue said. “Topics such as material culture, visual arts, cultural studies, American culture studies, history, ethnic studies and gender studies have a connection to the electric guitar.”
