	Country pop - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Country Pop is a subgenre of country music that first emerged in the 1970s, with roots in both the countrypolitan sound and in soft rock.
		Country pop music gained its first success in the early 60s with a new widespread creation by producers Owen Bradley and Chet Atkins called the Nashville Sound.
		Country pop enjoyed a resurgence beginning in the mid-1990s, primarily because of Garth Brooks and Shania Twain, among others.

		Country harmony relies for the most part on a simple selection of repeated chords—usually three, although additional chords or as few as two may be used.
		The country genre began in the 1920s with string bands, which usually consisted of various combinations of guitar, fiddle, banjo, mandolin, and string bass, also known as a double bass.
		The piano can be found on country records as early as 1925, but it did not become a lead instrument until the late 1940s, with the boogie-woogie recordings of singer and songwriter Aubrey “Moon” Mullican.

	Country music - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Country music, the first half of Billboard's country and western music category, is a blend of popular musical forms originally found in the Southern United States.
		The term country music began to be used in the 1940s when the earlier term hillbilly music was deemed to be degrading, and the term was widely embraced in the 1970s, while country and western has declined in use since that time.
		Jimmie Rodgers and the Carter Family are widely considered to be the founders of country music, and their songs were first captured at a historic recording session in Bristol, Tennessee on August 1, 1927, where Ralph Peer was the talent scout and sound recordist.

		Western swing was a country version of the big-band jazz music popular during the 1930s and 1940s, a period known as the swing era.
		Although it featured country songs performed by country stars, the Nashville sound was produced with the technology and sophistication of popular music of the period.
		The big-label, large-studio approach has remained part of the country music industry, as has the overall tendency to combine popular and country music into a style often referred to as country pop.

		Often, Alternative Country was used interchangeably with Americana -- the difference between the two is that alt-country had its roots in country, while Americana grew out of the roots rock movement of the '80s, and found former rock & rollers turning to folk and country as they grew older.
		Contemporary Country is the mainstream country and country-pop that evolved after the slick country-pop of the Urban Cowboy movement in the early '80s.
		The sound dominated the country charts in the '70s and stayed popular until the early '80s, when it was replaced by Urban Cowboy, a country-pop genre that was explicitly influenced by rock.

		That's why she managed pop crossover hits in the early '80s and also why she was able to sustain country success throughout the decade.
		During the mid-'70s, she established herself as a country superstar, crossing over into the pop mainstream in the early '80s, when she smoothed out the rough edges in her music and began singing pop as well as country.
		Most of her albums were dominated by the adult contemporary pop of songs like "Islands in the Stream," and it had been years since she had sung straightforward country.

	Country Music Editorial - The different sounds of country music, June 2005
		Country music certainly has gone through a number of phases in the past decade or so.
		All of a sudden, the sound purveyed by Travis Tritt (though he was far more country than the current crop) and Montgomery Gentry (more rock than country) seems to have gone full tilt towards southern rock.
		The point is that what used to be country not too long ago has far expanded for better or worse well beyond its roots.

		When rockabilly took off, however, country musicians were forced to consider whether their true affinities lay with traditional country or with this popular new style, which allowed artists to reach crossover audiences for the first time.
		Because the melodies and song structures of country music were usually very simple and catchy, they worked well when placed in a pop-oriented format; Atkins' productions often placed the songs in orchestral arrangements heavy on the strings, which sometimes blended with country instrumentation and sometimes stood alone.
		Ronnie Milsap was one of the major figures of country music in the 1970s, developing a hybrid of country and pop which brought him a large audience.

		On the one hand country music is simple and homespun, defined by twangy vocals, mournful guitars and fiddles, and lyrics about dogs, death, mother, and your childhood home in the hills.
		But erase the cliches and you'll quickly realize that country covers a surprisingly large amount of territory--everything from Hank Williams' honky tonk to the western swing of Bob Wills and Milton Brown; from the slick pop stylings of Faith Hill to the melancholy acoustic songs of Gillian Welch.
		These days country's got rock, soul, maybe a touch of jazz, and plenty of the blues, but when you're pining for a lost love or yearning for the smell of your mama's cooking, there's nothing like a good country song to bring you back home.

		It's a good time for a live video from Urban, who topped the country charts and went platinum with Be Here, the album the tour was promoting, after several years of increasing success.
		Urban, an expatriate New Zealander, is anything but a Nashville purist; in fact, his music is only nominally definable as country, due to the frequent inclusion of a Dobro, banjo, or mandolin in his arrangements and the slight country twang in his singing voice, acquired from years of listening to country music as a child.
