This series of world music guides is meant for the travelers and residents who want to learn about the local music scenes in specific cities throughout the globe. Our guides try to focus on local and regional music with traditional roots, whether it's purely traditional, modern folk or world beat. We will list as many cities as possible with details about the best stores to find world music and local music, live music clubs and other venues, festivals, museums, musical instrument shops and makers, radio stations, publications, networking organizations and tools, food and many other useful things.
