Detroit is the only city that can claim both the Motown Sound and the birth of techno within its limits. The Motown Museum on West Grand Boulevard preserves the legacy of soul and R&B, while the Marble Bar and Spot Lite carry the electronic lineage of the Belleville Three into the present. Saint Andrew's Hall and The Shelter have launched punk and hip hop acts for decades, and Cliff Bell's keeps the jazz tradition alive in a city that invented whole genres.
