Folk: Blues

Blues is characterized by chord progressions, especially the 12-bar blues progression, and by "blue notes" that are sung or played in a way that flattens or bends the notes in relation to the pitch of the major scale. Influenced by African American spirituals and work songs, blues has its roots in the 19th century Deep South.
