Manage episode 304914830 series 2996111
Welcome to our first episode of Music History on a High Note! Today Tori and I will be traveling back to 1959 to take a look at the Day the Music Died, the tragic plain crash that killed three musicians far too young; Buddy Holly, Richie Valens, and JP Richardson (The Big Bopper). We'll take a dive back into each man's life, their short music careers, and the night the music died.
