Their music mixes rock and a wide range of styles such as pop, Afro-Latin music, funk, Latin American folk music, and many others, achieving the sound for which they are known. Pop music as a genre features a noticeable rhythmic element catchy melodies and hooks, a mainstream style and conventional structure Funk is an American musical style that originated in the mid- to late-1960s when African American musicians blended Soul music, Soul Folk music can have a number of different meanings including Traditional music: The original meaning of the term "folk music" was synonymous
