Abstract
In this essay I discuss how conditions in Viet Nam and abroad influenced the production, dissemination, and consumption of contemporary popular Vietnamese music. I trace the history of popular Vietnamese music since 1975 and highlight the voices of musicians, producers, and consumers in the U.S. and Viet Nam. Included in this analysis are three well-known music production companies—Paris By Night Thuy Nga Productions (PBN), Trung Tam Asia, and Kim Loi—and one network of independent Viet Kieu musicians, B-Flat. Taken together, the companies illustrate transnational culture flows and forms of collaboration between Vietnamese American and Vietnamese music makers.
