=== Southern gospel music === {{Main|Southern gospel}} [[Southern gospel]] music comes from the Southeastern United States and is similar in sound to Christian country music, but it sometimes known as "quartet music" for its traditional "four men and a piano" set up. The genre, while remaining predominantly White, began to integrate Black gospel stylings in the 1960s.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Goff|first=James R.|date=1998|title=The Rise of Southern Gospel Music|url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/3169850|journal=[[Church History (journal)|Church History]]|volume=67|issue=4|pages=722β744|doi=10.2307/3169850|jstor=3169850 |s2cid=162017997 |issn=0009-6407}}</ref> It has evolved over the years into a popular form of music across the United States and overseas, especially among [[baby boomers]] and those living in the South. Like other forms of music the creation, performance, significance, and even the definition of southern gospel varies according to culture and social context.
