Former vocal coach specializing in Western musicRyo
Under the theme of “vocal skills that stand up on the world stage,” I have experience teaching as an online vocal coach specializing in Western music, and I usually listen to genres like nuevo flamenco, bolero, canzone, and R&B. In my teens, I questioned the idea that “foreign music equals English,” and started exploring songs from around the world. My commentary is characterized by a unique perspective shaped by listening to music of every genre, in every language, from every country. I mainly cover world music, so be sure to check it out!

Started working as a music writer as a side job while employed at a record shop, and have been contributing to music magazines and web media for over 15 years. Although Western music is my main field, I always strive to stay curious with the motto, “I like what I like.” I have experience playing in a band, where I was a bassist responsible for songwriting and composition. Instruments I’ve performed on include bass, guitar, and piano. I resumed piano lessons after turning 40 and have been continuing ever since!

Blues, known as the origin of various genres such as jazz and rock, also has its own subgenres.

Among them, blues rock is, quite literally, a genre that refers to rock built on the foundation of the blues.

It was born primarily among British musicians influenced by authentic American blues, but in practice, works labeled as blues rock often incorporate many other elements, such as garage and psychedelic.

In this article, we’ve picked out classic Western songs categorized as “blues rock,” including bands from the 2000s onward.
