coffeehouse music
Strumming singer-songwriter fare
Coffeehouse music is the mellow, acoustic-leaning sound associated with coffee shops—singer-songwriters, soft folk, gentle jazz, or indie pop that serves as pleasant background without demanding attention.
The term often carries a slightly dismissive edge, suggesting music that's pleasant but safe, unlikely to challenge or surprise: It's nice enough, but it's just coffeehouse music.
