Американа (также известная как музыка американских корней ) [1] - это смесь американской музыки, образованная слиянием общих и разнообразных традиций, составляющих музыкальный этос Соединенных Штатов, особенно тех звуков, которые объединены с фолком , кантри и т. Д. блюз , ритм-энд-блюз , рок-н-ролл , госпел и другие внешние влияния. [2] Американа, согласно определению Музыкальной ассоциации Американы. (AMA), is "contemporary music that incorporates elements of various mostly acoustic American roots music styles, including country, roots rock, folk, gospel and bluegrass resulting in a distinctive roots-oriented sound that lives in a world apart from the pure forms of the genres upon which it may draw. While acoustic instruments are often present and vital, Americana also often uses a full electric band."[3][4] Some songs of 19th century for example are Oh! Susanna, John Henry and Camptown Races,[5] some 20th Century songs are Casey Jones and You Are My Sunshine.

Этимология [ править ]

Слово « Американа » в его нынешнем значении для описания культуры Соединенных Штатов Америки было придумано в 1841 году. [6] [ требуется пояснение ]

Despite the genre's most common name, it is not practiced solely by artists from the United States, as numerous artists from Canada are also prominent in the genre.[7] Canadian bands in the genre will sometimes be referred to as Canadiana rather than Americana in Canadian media,[8] although this is not a widely recognized synonym elsewhere. A Norwegian scene is often referred to as Nordicana.[9]

Americana as a radio format[edit]

Americana as a radio format had its origins in 1984 on KCSN in Northridge, California. Mark Humphrey, a contributor to country/folk Frets magazine, hosted a weekly radio show called "Honky Tonk Amnesia" which played "country, folk, honky tonk, cajun, dawg, blues, and old-time music", a combination that the country music station KCSN advertised as "Americana".[10] The format came into its own in the mid-1990s as a descriptive phrase used by radio promoters and music industry figures for traditionally-oriented songwriters and performers.[4]
