Bush Ballad

Bush Ballad is a style of Australian folk music that originated in the 19th century. It is characterized by its simple, often sentimental lyrics and its slow, melancholic melodies. The lyrics often tell stories of the Australian outback, its people, and its history. Bush Ballads often feature the use of the guitar, banjo, and harmonica, and are often accompanied by a chorus of voices. Bush Ballads are a popular form of music in Australia, and are often performed at festivals and other events.
