Folk rocks

A documentary on singer Su Yang's musical inspiration will be in Chinese cinemas soon, Chen Nan reports.

As a kid growing up in Yinchuan, Northwest China's Ningxia Hui autonomous region, Su Yang recalls local people singing "infectious" folk songs as they worked on farms there.

It wasn't until adulthood, however, after Su founded his own band, influenced by rock, that he discovered his interest in Ningxia's folk and traditional music.
