Bluegrass

With its quaint diatonic chords, it's no wonder that the Appalachian dulcimer is picked along in the background and sometimes up front in many bluegrass pieces.

Folk

The Appalachian dulcimer is a key middle tone for many different types of genres.

Country

When it comes to folk music, or just a family gathering up at Grandpa's, the dulcimer has always been a family favorite.

Since the 1930's, the dulcimer has had an uprising in country classics until the late 1960's when different types of acoustics made their way in.
