Sacred Steel is a style of gospel music that originated in the African-American churches of the southeastern United States. It is a form of gospel music that combines traditional gospel music with elements of blues, jazz, and rock. Sacred Steel is typically performed on electric lap steel guitars, which are amplified and often heavily distorted. The style is characterized by its heavy use of improvisation, and often features a call-and-response between the lead guitar and the congregation. Sacred Steel is often performed in churches, but has also become popular in secular venues.
