Birmingham’s music heritage runs deep. African American a cappella quartet singing that developed in Jefferson County as the Birmingham Sound in the 1930s and 40s is played today by the local group the Birmingham Sunlights. The Birmingham Sound has been called the direct line ancestor to the most popular versions of African American harmony later made famous by The Tempta­tions.

Starting in the 1960s, top artists from around the world including Aretha Franklin, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Rod Stewart and the Rolling Stones recorded their mu­sic in Alabama making Muscle Shoals the Hit Recording Capital of the World.
