So I listen to CCR and Wikipedia says they were formed in El Cerrito, California. I don’t know much about the regional tones of bands from that era, but what makes their region of origin unexpected?

CCR has to be the band most unexpectedly from where they are from.

CCR sounds bluesy, gritty and blue-collar/southern, definitely not folksy, ‘hippie’ sounding like the Mamas and the Papas

Ah gotcha! I don’t really get too much into music categorisation so grouping them by geography is off my level. Thanks!

Half their songs are about being from Louisiana.

I always assumed that CCR was from like…Louisiana or something. Never would have guessed that they were from the bay area. Wild.
