About

Not for nothing is the United States of America called the land of dreams. It has given flight to millions of immigrants who exited far away shores of Europe in search of dreams, hopes and aspirations in the 18th,19th and early 20th centuries. Even today, thousands of legal and illegal immigrants breast the finish line either on the East coast or the West.

Colossal and staggeringly diverse, America harbours an astounding collection of natural and cultural wonders, from teeming big lights and big cities to mountains, plains and forests covering vast swaths of the continent. America is the birthplace of Los Angeles (LA), Las Vegas, Chicago, Miami, Boston and New York City – each a brimming metropolis whose name alone conjures up a million different notions of culture, cuisine and entertainment. Dive in deeper, and the American quilt unfurls in all its surprising variety - the eclectic music scene of Austin, the easy-going charms of antebellum Savannah, the eco-consciousness of free-spirited Portland, the magnificent waterfront of San Francisco and the captivating old quarters of New Orleans, rising up from its waterlogged ashes.

This is a country of road trips and great open skies, where four million miles of highways lead past red-rock deserts, below towering mountain peaks, and across fertile wheat fields that roll off toward the horizon. The world’s third-largest nation has made tremendous contributions to the arts. Cities like Chicago and New York have become veritable drawing boards for the great architects of the modern era. Musically speaking, America has few peers on the world stage. From the soulful blues born in the Mississippi Delta to the bluegrass of Appalachia and Detroit’s Motown sound, plus jazz, funk, hip-hop, country and rock and roll – America has invented sounds that are integral to modern music.
