Folk Rock
Folk rock is a hybrid music genre that combines the elements of folk and rock music, which arose in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom in the mid-1960s. In the U.S., folk rock emerged from the folk music revival.

The term "folk rock" was initially used in the U.S. music press in June 1965 to describe the Byrds' music.
