Blues
Blues music originated in the Deep South of the United States around the 1860s. Blues incorporated spirituals, work songs, field hollers, shouts, chants, and rhymed simple narrative ballads from the African-American culture. The genre developed in African American communities like St. Louis and New Orleans to provide spiritual consolation for working people in a time of great social change in America.
