The Sound of Detroit - Volume 3
- Date published
- 06-Nov-2014
The Sound of Detroit series celebrates the incredibly fertile musical culture of a city that was once the fifth largest in the U.S. and synonymous with America’s world-beating automobile industry, but now famous for its decay. From John Lee Hooker to Eminem, from Derrick May to Jack White, Detroit can lay claim to some of the boldest and most vibrant pioneers in pop music’s history.
In the third edition of the series, Carhartt WIP pays homage to Model 500, Elvin Jones, Was (Not Was) and Yusef Lateef.
The Sound of Detroit Series is now available at Carhartt WIP stores, online, and in selected retailers around the world.
