American music is widely heard all over the world, but there are many American musical genres that you may not be familiar with. Simply knowing the latest hip-hop artist advertised on MTV doesn’t automatically make you a knowledgeable fan of American music.

American country music, for example is not commonly heard outside the United States of America. Older country music is still appreciated here, although many radio stations play an increasingly large amount of new, contemporary country music.

Patsy Cline is a well known name among American country music fans, as well as those who may not be great fans of country music, but who have lived in the United States for many years.
