Blues Rock
See all GenresBlues Rock is a musical genre that combines elements of blues and rock. It emerged in the 1960s when musicians began to incorporate electric guitars, loud drums, and intense bass lines of rock into traditional blues rhythms and melodies. Blues Rock guitarists often use techniques such as slide and bending to add expressiveness and intensity to the music. Prominent representatives of the genre include artists such as Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, and Stevie Ray Vaughan.
