  • Real Rock: Authenticity and Popular Music in Canada, 1984-1994
    REAL ROCK: AUTHENTICITY AND POPULAR MUSIC IN CANADA, 1984-1994 PAUL DAVID AIKENHEAD A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN HISTORY YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO SEPTEMBER 2018 © PAUL DAVID AIKENHEAD, 2018 Abstract This dissertation investigates the production and reception of English-Canadian rock music sound recordings, from 1984 to 1994, in relation to mutually constitutive understandings of race, ability, gender, sexuality, class, age, and place. It examines how different forms of domestic Anglo rock served to reinforce or subvert the dominant ideologies undergirding the social order in Canada during the late twentieth century. This study analyzes a multifaceted discourse about authenticity that illustrates the ways in which a host of people – including musicians, music journalists, record label representatives and other professionals from across the music industries, government administrators, and consumers – categorized recorded sound, defined bodily norms, negotiated commerce and technology, and evaluated collective communication in Canada. This study finds that the principle of originality fundamentally structured the categorization of sound recordings in Canada. Originality, according to rock culture, encompassed the balancing of traditionalism with innovation. This dissertation determines that Whiteness organized English-Canadian rock culture in terms of its corporeal standards. White bodies functioned as the norm against which racialized Others were compared and measured. This study also shows how the concept of autonomy encouraged the proper negotiation of commerce and technology in an increasingly neoliberal political and economic condition. Independence of will fostered acceptable behaviour. Finally, this dissertation reveals that the rock status of a given concert rested upon the actions of the performers as well as the composition and reactions of ticket holders in the audience.

Liberated Arts: A Journal for Undergraduate Research Holmes 1 Overcoming Kenophobia in The Tragically Hip’s “At the Hundredth Meridian” Brent Holmes, Huron University College alumnus and Deputy Editor for The Gazette (2014–2015) Abstract: This essay explores the lyrical work of Gord Downie as part of the iconic Canadian rock band, The Tragically Hip. It uses the work of music journalists, Canadian literary theorist and pop culture theorists to explore what Downie’s lyrics communicate about Canadian identity and how Downie engages with the theme of space, boundaries, and kenophobia in Canadian lit- erature. By applying Margaret Atwood’s and Northrop Frye’s ideas of space and nature in Cana- dian literature, The Tragically Hip’s song “At the Hundredth Meridian” can be understood as an important work of Canadian music.

People who could not get a ticket gather in Springer Market square to listen to the Tragically Hip in downtown Kingston, Ontario. — AP photos Thousands attend a public viewing of the, The Tragically Hip’s final concert in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Canadians bid adieu to beloved band whose singer is dying he rock concert did not begin with a rock song. Instead, it started with flag-waving fans breaking into a national Tanthem, “O Canada.” The impromptu tribute by an emotion- al sold-out crowd that included Prime Minister Justin Trudeau began what was expected to be the final performance Saturday by Tragically Hip, a group known as Canada’s Band, and lead singer and songwriter Gord Downie, dubbed Canada’s unofficial poet laureate. Downie has been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer, and fans across Canada and abroad gathered at viewing parties to tune in and bid him farewell. The bluesy rock band is better known as The Hip, and Downie is known for penning paeans to Canadian life: about hockey and desolate small towns, about literature and the French explorer who named Canada. Being so defiantly Canadian might be one reason why The Hip sent nine of its 13 albums to No. 1 in Canada, but none above the top 100 in the US. After spending three decades together, The Hip returned on Saturday night to where they began as a college rock band, the Lake Ontario city of Kingston.
