Rock on...

There's something about music - and especially rock music - that inspires freedom. It brings people together and shatters oppression.

If the collapse of the Berlin wall had a soundtrack, it would be rock & roll.

The fall of the Soviet Union paralleled the rise of rock in Moscow.

American students in the '60s are probably the best example of what I'm saying. And the lyrics don't have to be anti-establishment. They don't have to be about resistance. There's something untouchable in rock & roll itself that goes beyond jurisdictions and pushes the limits of a society.

Introducing Saudi Arabia's first, all-girl rock & roll band.

The AccoLade
