American Roots Music by Robert Santelli

In the 20th century, American roots music - gospel, blues, country, western, folk, cajun, zydeco, tejano and Native American - was invented and nurtured in small communities and spread across the nation and the world. Eventually these traditional forms gave rise to the popular music that conquered the world: rhythm and blues, rockabilly, and rock and roll.
Robert Santelli is deputy director of the Experience Music Project in Seattle. Holly George-Warren is an editor at Rolling Stone Press. Jim Brown is an Emmy-award winning director who produced the American Roots Music documentary for PBS.
