Welcome!

This blog is dedicated to the influences and themes of international music. My posts will place heavy focus on style, uniqueness, and themes. The artists, lyrics, and instrumentation will all be analyzed thoroughly. 

Music is consistently a major part of our world's culture. Each country typically has artists, genres, and more attributed directly to its identity. Whether a country is fully developed, or tribal, music plays a key role in what makes it unique.

Americans are not always open-minded when it comes to music. Barriers such as language, artistic differences, and existing personal preference can prevent people from giving foreign music a chance. On this blog, I will also discuss the importance of appreciating music from around the world. 

Music is something that I've always been very passionate about. It is my goal to share the wonders of music with you! I hope that you will develop an appreciation for international musicians and their work.
