Roots music refers to a wide variety of American traditions such as blues, gospel, country, bluegrass and more. Quite literally roots music is at the root of America’s best known genres: rock and roll, rhythm and blues and jazz. A roots musician may incorporate some or all of these rich traditions into their music or specialize in just one specific genre. The soundtrack of the film ‘O Brother, Where Art Thou?’ brought about a mini-roots revival and introduced the rich, gritty sound of many great roots musicians to a larger audience. When you hire a roots musician you get heartfelt music straight from the soul.
