Scranton's nickname, the Electric City, hints at its industrial past. The Scranton Cultural Center hosts jazz and classical performances in a historic setting. The city's working-class identity fuels a strong rock, punk, and metal scene in clubs across downtown and the Minooka section. Indie and alternative bands have found followings in the college crowd. The nearby Poconos bring country music fans to the area. Hip-hop has grown in the post-industrial landscape.
