One of the first uses of the term Dixieland referred to music by the Original Dixieland Jass Band (which shortly thereafter changed the spelling of its name to Original Dixieland Jazz Band). Their 1917 recordings fostered popular awareness of this new style of music. At that time, there was no issue of subgenres of jazz, so Dixieland referred to the band and not the music.
Dixie, also known as Dixie's Land, I Wish I Was in Dixie, and other titles, is a popular American song. It is one of the most distinctively American musical products of the 19th century, and probably the best-known song to have come out of blackface minstrelsy. Although not a folk song at its creation, Dixie has since entered the American folk vernacular.
