MUS 106 Road Trip: Mixtape

Every road has a sense of place, a collective sound identity, and a story. Through readings, maps, and the many musical styles that make up the United States, we’ll “travel” significant roadways around the country and explore indigenous, immigrant, and African American contributions to our music identity. Designing and (virtually) traveling your own road trip with accompanying mixtape, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of the United States’ musical story, from its origins to contemporary times.
