| | Bluegrass music - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Rather, bluegrass is an amalgam of old-time music, blues, ragtime and jazz. | | | Bluegrass music is considered a form of American roots music with its own roots in the English, Irish and Scottish traditional music of immigrants from the British Isles (particularly the Scots-Irish immigrants of Appalachia), as well as the music of rural African-Americans, jazz, and blues. | | | While bluegrass is not a folk music in the strictest sense, the interplay between bluegrass music and other folk forms has been studied. |

| | For pure bluegrass roots, The Vancouver Sun's Anne McIntyre notes that Jenny's Send Down An Angel "is as traditional in words and music as Bill Monroe himself." A new tradition is starting as her original material is found in most jammers’ songbooks across Western Canada. | | | The homeland journey began in Vancouver where I musically connected with the innovative and pure mandolinist, John Reischman. | | | Jenny’s original songs are carefully crafted in the bluegrass tradition while at the same time displaying a contemporary freshness and vitality that breathes new life into the fabled "high lonesome" sound. |
