Do You Love Country Music?
Do you love country music (the likes of Shania Twain’s songs)? If yes, then we’re on the same boat because I really find listening to country music relaxing. A study on music also claimed that it is perhaps best form of stress management in many societies. But what is country music and how did it evolve into its present form?
According to wikipedia, “country music is a blend of popular musical forms originally found in the Southern United States and the Appalachian Mountains. It has roots in traditional folk music, Celtic music, gospel music, and old-time music and evolved rapidly in the 1920s. 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, except in the United Kingdom and Ireland, where it is still commonly used.”
In addition, in the Southwestern United States a different mix of ethnic groups created the music that became the Western music of the term country and western. In the United States, one of the most active music organizations is the Country Music Association (CMA) where it showcases the best country singers, songs and composers. One of their objectives is to bring the poetry and emotion of Country Music to the world.
In the meantime, check out the upcoming events like Kenny Chesney’s concert. Kenny Chesney popularized the songs “Young,” “Big Star” and “It Don’t Happen Twice”. According to critics, his songs are well-written and very pleasing. Interested? Then get your Kenny Chesney Tickets now at your local ticket outlets.

I also love listening to music. Country music pala tawag dun sa mga kanta ni Shania Twain, di kasi ako familiar sa music genre. Di ko alam kung ano yung Alternative, Blues, RnB, Pop, folk, hip-hop, at kung anu-ano pa.
