Description
Originating from the Piedmont Plateau, which spans from New Jersey to Alabama,
the Piedmont Blues is a distinct form of country blues. Characterized primarily
by a style of guitar playing which involves picking a syncopated melody on the
treble strings, supported by a regular alternating bass string pattern played by
the thumb. This results in a sound similar to ragtime or stride piano.
