Southern rock revival
The Southern rock revival refers to a resurgence of interest in Southern rock music, a genre that combines rock, country, and blues elements, originating from the American South in the 1970s. In the late 2000s and early 2010s, bands and artists drew inspiration from classic Southern rock bands like Lynyrd Skynyrd and The Allman Brothers, blending their historic sound with contemporary styles. This revival reintroduced Southern themes, guitar-driven melodies, and a sense of regional pride to new audiences, revitalizing the genre's popularity and influence in the modern music scene.
