Lounge music is a genre characterized by its sophisticated, laid-back sound, often featuring lush orchestral arrangements, jazzy instrumentation, and smooth, velvety vocals. Emerging in the 1940s and 1950s, lounge music evolved from swing and jazz traditions, becoming a staple of upscale nightlife and supper clubs. Its heyday in the 1950s and 1960s coincided with the rise of Las Vegas and Hollywood's Golden Age, with iconic performers embodying the genre's suave, urbane spirit. Lounge music's cultural significance lies in its role as a soundtrack for sophisticated leisure and entertainment, influencing later genres like easy listening and adult contemporary. Distinct from other genres, lounge music is marked by its polished production, witty lyrics, and a blend of jazz, pop, and classical elements, creating a unique sound that is both retro-glamorous and timeless.
