Australian Country music is a genre of music that originated in Australia in the early 20th century. It is a blend of traditional folk music, Celtic music, and American country music. It is characterized by its use of acoustic instruments such as the guitar, banjo, fiddle, and mandolin, as well as its focus on storytelling and lyrics that reflect the Australian way of life. The genre often features themes of rural life, love, and loss, as well as the struggles of the working class. It is often performed in a style that is both upbeat and melancholic, and is often accompanied by a two-step dance. Popular Australian Country artists include Slim Dusty, Kasey Chambers, and Keith Urban.
