The Twenties had a wide variety of musical styles. Radio stations were starting to appear all over the US exposing people to many new kinds of music. Early jazz, ragtime, Dixieland, folk music, early country, gospel, and classical were probably the most prevalent genres. Big Band and Swing, which didn't really develop until the 1930's, were a kind of evolutionary step intermingling some of these earlier styles.
