For younger members, making claims to belong is problematic in a scene where dominant notions of authenticity held by insiders are rooted in a particular past: the places, people, events, and soundscapes of particular venues during the 1970s. In order to engage with this past, young men and women participate in a range of discursive practices. This book argues that these practices, and the ways they intersect and deviate from dominant notions of authenticity, represent shared and individual negotiations of the &#8216;true soulie&#8217;. In doing so, it reveals the rich experiences of the younger generation of this multigenerational music scene, and the ways they establish a claim to belong to a scene first formed before they were born.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Palgrave Macmillan, 2021.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/link.springer.com\/book\/10.1007\/978-3-030-41364-4\">Purchase this book here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This book, which builds on a three-year immersive ethnographic study, argues that what scene participants do and say within the northern soul scene constitutes a claim to belong.
