Music history is our passion at SoundAround Tours. It is so much more than dates and places though – it’s all about the people that made the sounds that have become the soundtracks to our lives. It’s about the heritage of music, the culture that cultivated it and the people who stamped such an indelible mark on the music we listen to today, that we feel the rhythms they created through time.

We chart music history in each of our tours whether they be by artist or one of our city-based tours – exploring the whole story of a place.

We take you on a journey to unravel the places that made the performer, how they were shaped by their past and created a future for themselves, as well as the artists that would follow and be influenced by their work. Our tours reveal the culture and social history that shaped your favorite artists.

Here though we share with you biographies, guides, thoughts and musings on all aspects of the popular music timeline.
