Balladeers

Balladeers are performers or artists who specialize in singing or storytelling through narrative-style songs, often focusing on lyrical storytelling with emotional depth. Traditionally, the term refers to folk or popular singers who tell stories through their music, commonly in genres like folk, country, or ballads. They aim to connect with audiences by conveying vivid stories, historical events, or personal experiences, using melody and lyrics to evoke emotion and imagination. Essentially, balladeers serve as modern storytellers through their vocal performances, preserving oral traditions and cultural histories in a musical form.
