America's Music: The Roots of Country is a film that touches on which bar-style music, common in the South US?
Honky-tonk A honky-tonk (also called honkatonk, honkey-tonk, or tonk) is both a bar that provides country music for the entertainment of its patrons and the style of music played in such establishments. Bars of this kind are common in the South and Southwest United States. Many eminent country music artists, such as Jimmie Rodgers, Loretta Lynn, Patsy Cline, Ernest Tubb, and Merle Haggard, began their careers as amateur musicians in honky-tonks. The modern-day, honky-tonk atmosphere has continued, with the likes of Dwight Yoakam.
Jazz in Africa African Jazz generally originated in South Africa. During the music style's beginnings, it was a mirror of the jazz scene in America, but it eventually adopted strong South African influences. It went on to become a cultural phenomenon as a similar style was found in all countries of Africa, but with little or no jazz influence or reference today. This African style of music is today classified as part of the World Music family.
