Folk
Folk music is a genre of traditional music that is sometimes called contemporary folk music to distinguish it from older forms of folk. Folk music includes both instrumental music and vocal music, with most traditional folk songs being sung without accompaniment. Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, and Cat Stevens are just a few examples of folk music artists.
