American folk music

American folk music is a musical term that encompasses numerous genres, many of which are known as traditional music, traditional folk music, contemporary folk music or roots music. Many traditional songs have been sung within the same family or folk group for generations, and can sometimes be traced back to such places of origin as Great Britain, Europe, or Africa.〔("Folk Music and Song", American Folklife Center, Library of Congress )〕
Roots music is a broad category of music including bluegrass, country music, gospel, old time music, jug bands, Appalachian folk, blues, Cajun and Native American music. The music is considered American either because it is native to the United States or because it developed there, out of foreign origins, to such a degree that it struck musicologists as something distinctly new. It is considered "roots music" because it served as the basis of music later developed in the United States, including rock and roll, rhythm and blues, and jazz.
==Early American folk music==
Most songs of the Colonial and Revolutionary period originated in England, Scotland and Ireland and were brought over by early settlers. "Barbara Allen" remains a popular traditional ballad originating in England and Scotland, which immigrants introduced to the United States.〔Raph, Theodore. ''The American Song Treasury'', Dover Publications (1986)〕 The murder ballad "Pretty Polly" is an American version of an earlier British song, "The Gosport Tragedy".〔("Folk Songs and Ballads", American Roots Music, PBS )〕
