Rocktanica is a music history podcast featuring Dallas Gilmore, Alex VanBronkhorst and Zack Kowalski from the So What Did You Learn Podcast Network. Join us as we attempt to deep dive into the world of Rock N' Roll and hopefully get a few laughs out of you along the way. I absolutely adore music and I hope you find new music to listen to and grow to love during these episodes!
