Music Sound

Roots rock is a sometimes vaguely-defined genre of Americana music that draws on early rock and roll, blues, country music, country rock, and other related forms.

Media Coverage

Excellent roots rock commentary can be found in No Depression, and Uncut, a British magazine.

PBS's Austin City Limits series often feature excellent alt.country, americana, or roots rock acts, and the city of Austin, Texas, hosts an annual Austin City Limits music festival.
