Music makes a significant economic and cultural contribution to cities, and each local context produces a complex live music ecosystem composed of musical and non-musical actors, infrastructures and regulatory frameworks. This complexity presents a challenge for policymakers and businesses seeking to make informed strategic decisions. To address this challenge, the volume explores two core themes: firstly, the valuation and measurement of live music ecologies by recognising the interdependencies between venues, stakeholders, infrastructures and policy environments. Secondly, it considers mapping as an analytical tool for identifying spatial patterns, relationships and inequalities within live music ecosystems. Together, these approaches help address key policy questions and offer evidence-based insights to support more informed decisionmaking for live music industries and communities in urban environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"elementtoproof\" style=\"background: white; margin: 12.0pt 0cm 12.0pt 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePatrycja Rozbicka \u003c\/strong\u003eis a senior lecturer in Politics and International Relations at Aston University, Birmingham, UK. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRichard Anderson\u003c\/strong\u003e is a University of Liverpool based Research and Innovation Associate with Music Futures, and Institute of Popular Music researcher.
