The historical concept of Old West instrumental sounds dates back to the 19th century, on the American frontier, where cowboys and settlers used folk music to calm cattle during night trails or entertain in saloons and camps. Common instruments included fiddle (violin), harmonica, banjo, guitar, and concertina (a type of accordion), influenced by European, African, and Native American traditions. Anonymous and adapted melodies, such as variations of Celtic ballads or work songs, focused on themes of solitude, adventure, and nature, without lyrics for relaxing instrumental versions. This music celebrated the nomadic lifestyle, evolving into current country western.
