Bluegrass

Bluegrass music, influenced by both jazz and blues, is a variety of country and western music played by a string band. Its popularity, aside from the off-beat rhythms and a band’s natural harmony, comes from the mesmerizing sound of the banjo.

Lyrics

Old time mountain hillbilly music eventually became Bluegrass, with lyrics often providing detailed descriptions of Appalachia life. Songs examine lost love, solutioning of relationship arguments, and depict the challenges and struggles of rural living.

Vocals

Vocal harmony is a prominent characteristic of Bluegrass. The lead singer has a high pitch, layered between deep and higher voices. Combining unpleasantness and gloomy lyrics with hair-raising harmonies, a Bluegrass description is a high, lonesome sound.
