En la 1920-aj jaroj, bluso iĝis ĉefa elemento de afrikusona kaj usona ĝenerale popolmuziko, kaj atingis blankan publikon pere de la aranĝoj fare de Handy kaj pere de la klasikaj bluskantistinoj. Bluso evoluis el neformalaj ludoj en trinkejoj al distraj spektakloj en teatroj. Blusistoj estis organizitaj de la [[Theater Owners Bookers Association]] en [[noktoklubo]]j kiaj la [[Cotton Club]] kaj ''[[juke joint]]''-oj kiel tiuj laŭlonge de la strato Beale en [[Memphis]]. Kelkaj registrokompanioj, kiaj la [[American Record Corporation]], [[Okeh Records]], kaj [[Paramount Records]], elregistris afrik-usonan muzikon.

Country blues performers often improvised, either without accompaniment or with only a banjo or guitar. Regional styles of country blues varied widely in the early 20th century.

The lively [[Memphis blues]] style, which developed in the 1920s and 1930s near [[Memphis, Tennessee]], was influenced by [[jug band]]s such as the [[Memphis Jug Band]] or the [[Gus Cannon|Gus Cannon's Jug Stompers]]. Performers such as [[Frank Stokes (musician)|Frank Stokes]], [[Sleepy John Estes]], [[Robert Wilkins]], [[Joe McCoy]], [[Casey Bill Weldon]] and [[Memphis Minnie]] used a variety of unusual instruments such as [[washboard (musical instrument)|washboard]], [[Musical styles (violin)#Fiddle|fiddle]], [[kazoo]] or [[mandolin]]. Memphis Minnie was famous for her [[virtuoso]] guitar style. Pianist [[Memphis Slim]] began his career in Memphis, but his distinct style was smoother and had some swing elements.
