July 4rth…big day for south of the border…so I thought we would do a 20 song deep dive into some of the music that has come from them over the years! AND…also learn a little bit more about the USA…like…in some States there are MORE of these fast food restaurants than hospitals! Or…there are MORE of these types of homes in the US than any where else in the World! See? You will learn why these 20 bands and artists are SO important to the world of music…but some fun facts about the US as well! A well rounded education!
