Rock music originated from blues and jazz music in the early 1900's.

that is somewhat from the u . s ., particularly the southeast, that's for beneficial. in spite of the undeniable fact that it wasn't easily invented, it basically developed. It got here straight away from blues, which itself is a hybrid. Blues is a blend of classic African track and (of all issues) church hymns, and with out the blues there could be no rock & roll. the unique rock songs have been basically blues performed speedier and louder than customary. bill Haley & The Comets are credited with being the 1st rock & roll band, yet they in all probability weren't. They have been basically the 1st rock band performed on the radio, and their single Rock around the Clock (which they did no longer write) exploded around the globe in 1954. they're credited as a results of fact the band who began all of it, yet there have been in all probability one hundred bands before them doing an identical ingredient who not at all have been given on the radio. desire that facilitates.

Depends on how far back you go and what you consider originate. It grew with the evolution of the earliest banjos out of west Africa to the modern day guitar.

The west coast of Africa. From there it made its way into the American south via the slave trade.
