Detroit Music Trippin'

I can't help but be proud of our local magazine, The Metro Times, for publishing an amazing excerpt in this week's circular called, "Metro Times Detroit Music: The Ultimate Sightseer's Guide." This article has a page by page list of 100 historically known music dwellings for people to check out. And the best part is...they are all located in the Metro Detroit area!!!!

From Baker's Keyboard Lounge (the oldest jazz club in the world) to a mansion in Rochester Hills (where Eminem once lived), the creative minds behind this masterpiece have included every place imaginable for entertaining musical memories. The brilliance of this article knocked my socks off so far from my feet, that I decided to spread love and encourage all of you to dive into the amazement with me.



Each place listed has an address and a brief description of it's significance. Jazz, blues, pop, rap, r&b, punk, techno, motown, grunge, alternative, swing and more! This tour is great for visitors, locals and all music lovers interested in learning about the harmonious roots of the Motor City.

These places can easily be put into a GPS system for a self-guided musical tour.So burn your own cd with the melodious tunes from some of the many great artists who once thrived here and learn again why Detroit stands out as an urban delight. If this miraculous piece has not coaxed you into wanting to add this to your life list, maybe actually reading the article will. 

Check it out! You will be very proud and impressed. :)
