  • @Metallicaholic2009

    among others, yes. the appalachians themselves derived from scots and irish didn't they?

  • who is this cat?

  • @Metallicaholic2009 Yes but it was other influences like black music styles, and gospel, that gave it its own separate identity, as well as the isolation of Appalachian peoples in the mountains from the rest of the country and world. traditional Scotch Irish/Celtic folk music evolved for centuries up in the mountains and fused with other music to become something unique with its own identity. Some old songs even have the sound of old American Indian chants.

  • This is a beautiful and wonderful type of life, and the music was influenced by a variety of different sources, some would say the best of each, Appalachia is not to be confused with the deep south, the majority of the area treat those who they meet like they treat them and before the civil war there were many of mixed communities.
