Amy Winehouse Course Available At University

• 10th Dec 2008

The life and career of Amy Winehouse is to become a subject for academic study at a Scottish University. Her record label Universal/Island have apparently supplied materials for the module, which will appear as part of courses at the University of the West of Scotland, which has campuses in Paisley, Ayr, Dumfries and Hamilton.

Course leader Allan Dumbreck said: “Amy Winehouse is a great example of the potential pitfalls in the music industry. She is recognised as a multi-award-winning great artist. But the by-product of that lifestyle can be stress and illness. We would look at how the industry is often not a supporter of longevity”.
