Blues music is rooted in African-American history, characterized by its emotional depth and the use of the 12-bar blues structure. It often features guitars, harmonicas, and pianos, with lyrics focused on themes of love, loss, and hardship. Blues music uses distinctive guitar riffs and soulful vocals to convey raw emotion. Subgenres like Chicago blues and Delta blues highlight different styles, from electric, urban sounds to more acoustic, rural influences. Blues has heavily influenced other genres like rock and jazz, making it a cornerstone of modern music.
