Ny Roots

NY roots music is a genre that encapsulates the diverse, earthy sounds of New York's rich musical landscape, where traditional American folk intermingles with other elements of Americana. It’s a sound characterized by its authenticity and its blend of various acoustic instruments—such as banjos, fiddles, and guitars—melded with heartfelt storytelling in its lyrics. Artists within the genre, like Richie Stearns and Rosie Newton or Donna The Buffalo, are known for their skillful string-work and a grassroots approach that often taps into the spirits of bluegrass, folk-rock, and country. The music resonates with a certain rawness and simplicity, carrying the homemade ethos of Americana with a distinctive New York flair that adds a subtle urban undertone to the otherwise pastoral and timeless American sound.
