The blues is a vocal and instrumental musical genre, derived from the work songs of the Afro-American populations who appeared in Mexico and the United States during the 19th century as well as immigrants from England, Ireland, Scotland, Spain, France, Poland and France. Cherokee Indians, people of poor conditions who also expressed their sorrows in a comparable genre of music.

It's a genre where the singer expresses his sadness and his setbacks (hence the expression “having the blues”). The blues has had a major influence on American popular music, since it is the source of jazz, R'n'B and rock 'n' roll among others.

  • Bluegrass

    Bluegrass is a musical genre, having emerged in the United States, which constitutes a branch of country music. Its founder, Bill Monroe, originally from the community of Rosine in the Bluegrass region of Kentucky, began in the 1940s to codify and adapt to modern audiences the old-time music which draws its source in the mountain ranges of the Appalaches, music which is itself at the crossroads of various traditions, American (blues) and European (Anglo-Irish).

    The term "bluegrass" comes from the name of the musical group led by Bill Monroe: The Blue Grass Boys, whose name is itself inspired by the nickname of the State of Kentucky (the Bluegrass State).
