''Where did Country Music come from''
Country Music has its beginnings in music styles brought over by the first Eurpen settiers. While Country Music began with the ballads and songs of the british isies, it changed in content and personality as it grew in america.Some earily recording artists were Ernest ''POP'' Stoneman (1893-1968) and his family, the Fiddlin' powers family from virginia, chenoweth's cornfield symphony from texas (the first country band to be recorded)
John Carter he was a fiddlin' player for Country Music.
Country Music use to be called ''Old time music''. It started in the Appachian Moutains in the early 1920's
The most significant date in the creation of Country Music was August 1, 1927, when, in Bristol,Tennessee, reord executive Ralph Peer signed jimmie Rodgers and the carter family to victor records. These two recording acts, Rodgers with his unique singing style and the Carters with their extensive recordings of old-time mucis, built the founation for the genre.
