Classic Rock

What is Classic Rock?

Classic rock is a genre and radio format that primarily features rock music from the mid-1960s through the early 1980s, highlighting influential artists and bands such as Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, and The Who. It encompasses a wide range of styles including hard rock, blues rock, and progressive rock, and is characterized by powerful guitar riffs, memorable melodies, and enduring cultural impact. Originally rooted in the countercultural movements of the late 1960s, classic rock has since become a nostalgic symbol of a formative era in music history, continuing to shape the identity of modern rock.
