This is the closing to the Rock Matters episode Black Rock Matters. Each band mentioned is or has been composed, all or in part, of black artists. The list is hardly exhaustive, but it's our way of acknowledging and recognizing just a few of the contributions rockers of color have made to our world.
You can dive into each of the artists mentioned a bit more through our Black Rock Matters playlist.
Rock Matters is available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, and most other places. Or you can listen straight from our website. You can find The Itch on Twitter, Facebook, or at itchrocks@gmail.com.
