Python Introducing Lists Build an Application Multidimensional Musical Groups

How do I make a list out of multidimensional music groups?

I'm not sure where to go from here, do I need to in some way do an extra step to join each individual line into a string or something?

If somebody could write the correct code with an explanation that would be much appreciated!

groups.py
musical_groups = [
    ["Ad Rock", "MCA", "Mike D."],
    ["John Lennon", "Paul McCartney", "Ringo Starr", "George Harrison"],
    ["Salt", "Peppa", "Spinderella"],
    ["Rivers Cuomo", "Patrick Wilson", "Brian Bell", "Scott Shriner"],
    ["Chuck D.", "Flavor Flav", "Professor Griff", "Khari Winn", "DJ Lord"],
    ["Axl Rose", "Slash", "Duff McKagan", "Steven Adler"],
    ["Run", "DMC", "Jam Master Jay"],
]
# Your code here
group_number = 1
for group in musical_groups:
    print("{}, ".format(group))
    group_number =+ 1

I took Steven's advice along with your original code and believe I was able to output what the assignment is looking for:

for members in musical_groups:
    print(", ".join(members))

You might want to consider using "join" instead of "format". Also, nothing in the instructions requires you to create any new variables (like "group_number").
