Americana (also known as American roots music) is an amalgam of American music formed by the confluence of the shared and varied traditions that make up the musical ethos of the United States, specifically those sounds that are emerged from the Southern United States such as folk, gospel, blues, country, jazz, rhythm and blues, rock and roll, bluegrass, and other external influences.

If you haven't caught this show on PBS and like Americana type music, do yourself a favor and give it a watch. I've discovered a few new artists that I wouldn't have otherwise and was reminded that Allison Russell is a freaking boss.

Some of my favorites so far -

Charly Lowry. I wish there was more of her music available because what I've heard is awesome. Check out the live version of "Go Wild" at Youtube.

Rissi Palmer - Her latest song, with Miko Marks, called "Still Here" over at YT.

Adia Victoria - She's simply amazing. Video for "Magnolia Blues" at YT.

Allison Russell - "Persephone" is one of my favorite tunes right now.
