Blues started as a derivative of the music of African Americans in the Mississippi Delta and other places in the southern parts of the US, such as New Orleans, Memphis, St. Louis and other major cities where African American culture grew.
Early blues music has roots in Gospel music, field hollers, work songs, and barrelhouse music.
During the pre and post World War II periods there was a great migration of African Americans from the south to some of the northern industrial cities, such as Chicago and New York. Rural southern African Americans took their music with them. And as their lives changed the themes of the music changed.
Some of the roots of blues music can be traced back to Africa. And some musical instruments such as the banjo also have their origins in Africa. But the music that we call the blues today is an original American art form.
