Get Down to the St. Louis Sound

Live music and author talk with Amanda E. Doyle

From the first known human inhabitants of our woodlands and river valleys and French fiddlers of the fur trading days to the rock and hip hop icons of the present millennium, St. Louis is a town rich in musical history. Join St. Louis Sound author Amanda E. Doyle and a stellar lineup of local musicians for an entertaining and educational concert that will transport you musically from the early ragtime and blues to jazz and the birth of rock’n’roll, soaring R&B, funk, country, ska, Americana, hip hop, and more.
