Folk-pop

Folk-pop incorporates the sounds of the acoustic guitar and banjo of traditional folk music and combines it with the more electronic and synth beats of today's pop genre.

[4]Some rising artists exploring the folk-pop genre that have appeared on the Billboard Hot 100 in the last year include Tyler Childers, Noah Kahan, Zach Bryan, and The Lumineers.

[4] Popular music today contains "inherently nostalgic properties"[5] by referencing either past events or aspects of culture reflecting the timeframe in which the song is written.

Taylor Swift's Folklore (2020) album has examples of folk-pop songs referencing aspects of both current and past culture.

"The Last Great American Dynasty" tells the story of Rebekah Harkness, the woman that previously owned Swift's Rhode Island home in the 1940's-1970's.
