Description
From some of my first trips abroad, I realized that music has a force to connect us beyond most other elements of culture. This really struck home as I stood in a hostel in Rome some years ago. The guy behind the counter saw my passport which included the state I was born in and broke into "Sweet Home Alabama" in a thick Slavic accent. It was entirely unexpected, but it goes to show that music can transcend cultures as well as becoming tied to places.
When I started this little map project, I was torn on what to do for Alabama. Almost at the same time, Sweet Home Alabama and Stars Fall on Alabama popped into my head. Quite funny that neither are the state song of Alabama! But I decided not to choose and did two designs for Alabama. Well, it is my birth state anyway even if I have lived there in total less than three years - two of those in college at Auburn.
I can't pick a favorite, so if you love Alabama or have loved ones that do, be sure to look for the other state map I did for it!
