Definition: Bluegrass is a type of Appalachian music originally from North Carolina and Ohio, known for its roots in farming practices like livestock herding and hayloping. The term comes from "blue grass," which refers to the leaves of certain grasses native to those regions. Bluegrass often features slow, deliberate tempo with traditional instruments like banjos, mandolins, and fiddles playing chords rather than claps or rhythms. It is recognized as a genre by its roots in rural communities.
