Best Answer

Whereas Nashville Tennessee, is the "Country Music Capitol of the World." Kentucky, is the "Home of Bluegrass."

Even before the United States became an independent nation, individuals who lived in what is now the states of Kentucky, Tennessee, and Virginia developed the music that the world knows as bluegrass.

These people used such instruments as guitars, banjos, and fiddles to create their music. Country music and bluegrass music are related to each other. The only thing that makes them different, is that bluegrass performers use the basic instruments that were used in the early years of America. Country music artist have much more Musical Instruments to back them up.

Such instruments for the country singers would include guitars, fiddles, piano, harmonica, steel guitar, drums, and electric guitar.
