bluegrass gospel
Mountain spiritual music
Bluegrass gospel is religious music performed in the bluegrass style—acoustic string instruments like banjo, fiddle, and mandolin accompanying songs about faith, salvation, and spiritual longing.
The genre blends Appalachian musical traditions with Protestant hymns and spirituals: The Stanley Brothers recorded some of the finest bluegrass gospel.
