RE: Concert at Grampa Jed's - 12 of my favorites.

in #openmic6 years ago

Fantastic concert I only listened to 3 songs, my internet is very slow in South America :(

I am fascinated to see that although it is very different from cowboy music in Venezuela there is some similarity in attire and style of lyrics.

I like country because I see the influence of singers like elvis presley for example.

It is interesting that folk music in both North and South America is marked by the use of guitars, of Spanish origin a mix for my exquisite cultures.

Greetings cowboy, thank you for sharing your concert.

Thanks man! I'm doing my cowboy music in much more of a Tejano or Mexican style than most white guys from the US would do it in. So hopefully my music is sharing even more of that Southern Cowboy style! Would love to hear examples from your region! Thanks for watching!

Now everything makes sense, of course brother here I leave you 2 examples of popular Venezuelan music from the countryside or what would come to be the music of the llanero or as they say on those sides cowboy

is played with instruments such as the cuatro which is a small adapted guitar, with electric bass, harp and maracas which is a heritage of ethnic culture. The lyrics are composed with a Spanish style that was adapted called decima.

ojo te acabo de pasar 2 genres of many more, in each region of Venezuela there are differences.

Love it! I need to get exposed to some solo artists in that genre. I want to produce music that is the Americanized version of that style of southern cowboy music.
