Research on Genre

When researching about The Beach Boys we found out their genre is 'pop rock'. The group started creating their music during the early 60's and are also classed as a surf band, explaining the name The Beach Boys.
Pop rock is a mix of the conventions of popular music, light lyrical and catchy rhythms with a high concentraion of guitar usage simular to convential rock. Examples of modern Pop Rock bands include:
Maroon 5
Scouting for Girls
Before these bands there were bands like The Beach Boys and the Cranberries.
