Dark Blues

Description

History

Dark Blues evolved as a more introspective and emotionally intense branch of traditional blues music. It draws from the deep emotional roots of Delta Blues and Chicago Blues, often incorporating elements of rock and folk to create a more atmospheric and moody sound.
