country rock.

Country music with a true portrayal of life as its core content has been quite popular in the United States, and the formation and development of rock music is greatly influenced by it.

Generally speaking, country rock refers to a rock band that is active in the west coast of the United States and influenced by country music, while the same type of band in the south of the United States is called southern rock.
