What IS a Hootenanny?A hootenanny is an informal gathering where folk musicians come together to play music, sing songs, and encourage audience participation. Originating in the early 20th century, especially popular during the American folk music revival of the 1930s and 1960s, a hootenanny typically features a mix of performances by different musicians, often from folk or bluegrass genres, and involves a lot of sing-alongs where the audience is encouraged to join in. The atmosphere is casual, community-oriented, and celebratory, making it a fun and interactive musical event.
The term “hootenanny” has roots in American slang, originally used as a placeholder word (similar to "thingamajig"), but it became associated with these types of musical gatherings over time.
