Plot

Guided by the resonant voice of Academy Award® winner Morgan Freeman, "AMERICA'S MUSICAL JOURNEY" is a jubilant celebration of America's rich cultural diversity and the vibrant creativity that flows from it, all encapsulated in the story of its music. The film marks an adventurous path with Grammy Award®-nominated singer and songwriter Aloe Blacc at the helm, as he embarks on an exhilarating exploration tracing the roots of America's music through its birthplaces. From the jazz-infused streets of New Orleans to the bluesy tones of Chicago, from the pulsating rhythm of New York City to the country twang of Nashville, and from the soulful echoes of Memphis to the Latin beats of Miami, the audience is swept along on a whirlwind tour of America's iconic music cities. Each city bursts to life with a unique blend of sound, culture, and innovation, sprouting from the country's unique collision of cultures. In this mesmerizing journey, viewers will not only hear the pulsating heart of America's music but also experience the country like never before. They'll sail up the Mississippi Delta on a paddle-wheel boat, join flash mobs in Chicago, and even skydive alongside Elvis impersonators in scenes crafted exclusively for the giant screen, immersing them into the very fabric of American life. "AMERICA'S MUSICAL JOURNEY" illuminates how the fusion of diverse cultures gave birth to electrifying art forms like jazz, blues, country, rock and roll, and hip-hop, culminating in a symphony of sound unlike anywhere else in the world. This MacGillivray Freeman film, produced in association with Brand USA and presented by Expedia and Air Canada, is more than a music documentary. It is an odyssey into America's musical heritage that heartily invites viewers to tap their feet to the rhythm and pulse of the nation.
