(WOM also lists other examples of roots music, see p. 140). The roots music artist is urbane, commercially oriented, and self-consciously identifies her/himself with a musical tradition. Roots music focuses on themes about gender/class relationships, regional/historical issues, and racial/ethnic tensions.
