Thesis (M.A.)--Carleton University (Canada), 2005.

This thesis argues that a comprehensive understanding of Canadian popular music cannot be reached without taking into account local independent music scenes. Looking specifically at the genre of 'indie' music, I argue that such scenes reveal a surprising amount of cultural and entrepreneurial activity relative to economic investment. I suggest that such activity is stimulated simultaneously by the exclusivity of the scene's cultural capital and by the process of sharing common values, a process which I attempt to identify in the practices of the independent record store. Furthermore, I suggest that this activity does not remain contained within the scene, but overlaps with other non-musical practices common to living in a community. I attempt to show that such 'overlaps' create opportunities for participation outside of the scene. Local independent music scenes are thus important not only as sites of Canadian cultural production but as sites of social interaction in general.
