  • One Direction Infection: Media Representations of Boy Bands and Their Fans
    One Direction Infection: Media Representations of Boy Bands and their Fans Annie Lyons TC 660H Plan II Honors Program The University of Texas at Austin December 2020 __________________________________________ Renita Coleman Department of Journalism Supervising Professor __________________________________________ Hannah Lewis Department of Musicology Second Reader 2 ABSTRACT Author: Annie Lyons Title: One Direction Infection: Media Representations of Boy Bands and their Fans Supervising Professors: Renita Coleman, Ph.D. Hannah Lewis, Ph.D. Boy bands have long been disparaged in music journalism settings, largely in part to their close association with hordes of screaming teenage and prepubescent girls. As rock journalism evolved in the 1960s and 1970s, so did two dismissive and misogynistic stereotypes about female fans: groupies and teenyboppers (Coates, 2003). While groupies were scorned in rock circles for their perceived hypersexuality, teenyboppers, who we can consider an umbrella term including boy band fanbases, were defined by a lack of sexuality and viewed as shallow, immature and prone to hysteria, and ridiculed as hall markers of bad taste, despite being driving forces in commercial markets (Ewens, 2020; Sherman, 2020). Similarly, boy bands have been disdained for their perceived femininity and viewed as inauthentic compared to “real” artists— namely, hypermasculine male rock artists. While the boy band genre has evolved and experienced different eras, depictions of both the bands and their fans have stagnated in media, relying on these old stereotypes (Duffett, 2012). This paper aimed to investigate to what extent modern boy bands are portrayed differently from non-boy bands in music journalism through a quantitative content analysis coding articles for certain tropes and themes.

Ti Amo became more of a subconscious reaction to what was going on. “What we like is pure emotion in our music because that’s a subconscious part of the way we are. “We do not try to deliver messages, we prefer music that for us has a spark. “We were just experimenting in the studio.

  • Phoenix Rock in Austin City Limits Debut New Episode Airs October 12 on PBS Stations
    Phoenix Rock in Austin City Limits Debut New Episode Airs October 12 on PBS Stations Austin, TX—October 1, 2013—French band Phoenix make their Austin City Limits (ACL) debut in an epic, career-spanning full-hour episode that showcases their impeccably crafted rock. The brand new episode, part of ACL's just-launched Season 39, premieres October 12th. ACL airs weekly on PBS stations nationwide (check local listings for times) and full episodes are made available online at acltv.com immediately following the initial broadcast. “We are Phoenix from Paris, France,” announces frontman Thomas Mars as they open a stellar performance, although no introduction is necessary for the rapturous Austin crowd. French alternative rockers whose music resonates around the world, Phoenix kick-off with a blistering rendition of “Entertainment” from their latest release Bankrupt! The band segue into the massive hit “Lisztomania” off their 2009 breakthrough Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix, which won a Grammy Award for Best Alternative Album. Called “one of the most influential post-millenial acts” by the NY Times, Phoenix earned headlining spots at 2013's Coachella and Lollapalooza festivals. As the group connects the dots of its decade-plus career in their ACL outing, they pair older tunes with newer material: “Too Young” from their 2000 debut is woven into a seamless melody with the more recent “Girlfriend.” The opening synth notes of the intro to their smash “1901” draws raves from the audience as Phoenix cap a glorious set, with Mars calling the ACL appearance “a pinnacle moment” for the band. “Phoenix has been on my hit list since they won their Best Alternative Album Grammy three years ago, but it’s been well worth the wait,” says ACL executive producer Terry Lickona.

On July 18, 19 and 20, a celebration awaits! After the confirmations of Lana Del Rey, The 1975, Janelle Monáe, Cat Power, Migos, Kaytranada, Metronomy among others, there’s yet another reason to go to Super Bock Super Rock: the french band Phoenix will perform on July 19, at the Super Bock Stage. PHOENIX It all began in the Parisian suburbs when vocalist Thomas Mars, bassist Deck D’Arcy and guitarist Christian Mazzalai decided to make a garage band, like many other young group of friends in the mid 90’s. Soon after this, Mazzalai’s brother, guitarist Branco, also joined the band. They began by playing Prince and Hank Williams covers in Parisian pubs, still without the Phoenix signature. The name only came a few years later, when the first singles were released, at a time when they were divided between punk rock and krautrock. The band was still searching for their identity when they released the single “Heatwave”, aesthetically close to the 70’s disco scene. This was the way to go: gather many sonorities and create a Phoenix language. Their first album saw the light of day in 2000. “United” features the participations of family and friends, including Thomas Bangalter (Daft Punk) and Philippe Dar (Cassius).
