Rhythm section

A rhythm section is a group of musicians within an ensemble who provide the underlying rhythm and pulse of the accompaniment, providing a rhythmic reference for the rest of the band. Many of the rhythm section instruments, such as keyboards and guitars, play the chord progression upon which the song is based.The term is common in modern small musical ensembles, such as bands that play jazz, country, blues, and rock. In modern rock music, a rhythm guitarist specializes in rhythmic and chordal playing (as opposed to melodic and leading), sometimes simply repeating quaver (eighth-note) power chords, or strumming open chords.A typical rhythm section comprises a keyboard instrument and/or one or more guitars, a double bass or electric bass (depending on the style of music), and drums (usually acoustic, but in some post-1980s styles, the drums may be electronic). The guitars may be acoustic or electric, depending on the style of music.
