BETWEEN THE WARS
Music from 1918 to 1941
BOBBI CARREY & TOMI HAYASHI

Between the World Wars, America was on a wild roller coaster ride. After peace was declared in 1918, the country soared to giddy heights in the Roaring ’20s, crashed deep into the Depression, climbed the long hill back to prosperity—and then found itself once again at war. The stresses created a new and altered nation, and popular culture reflected every fall back and leap forward. American music, like all of society, was dramatically transformed by the tumultuous decades between 1918 and 1941. Through the medium of song, this recording explores American life and culture “between the wars.”
