The 1950s in America were a time of contrast and rebellion, a period when the clean-cut conformity of post-war prosperity met the restless spirit of the youth setting the perfect stage for the birth of Rockabilly. The air was electric with change—cars were getting faster, skirts were getting shorter, and music… well, music was about to get a whole lot louder. Rockabilly’s increment came in the late ’50s, with hits like Perkins’s “Blue Suede Shoes” defining the genre and artists like Wanda Jackson bringing a feminine fierceness to the scene. As the ’60s dawned, rockabilly’s raw edge was smoothed over by additional instruments and in the late ‘70s punk, with its DIY ethos and rebel heart, found a kindred spirit in rockabilly. The Stray Cats strutted onto the scene with their slicked-back hair and double bass, and the Polecats, bridged the gap between 1950s rock ‘n’ roll and punk attitude. Read more…

In the 90s and 00’s Imelda May, with her powerhouse vocals” exemplified how traditional Rockabilly could be electrified with a modern sensibility, and JD McPherson, used the genre’s roots while weaving in elements of soul and blues. Today, Colton Turner reminds us that Rockabilly’s roots are fertile ground for new growth, The Delta Bombers bring a grittier edge, and Nikki Hill, with powerhouse vocals, straddles the line between Rockabilly, R&B, and soul.

Rockabilly fashion feels like a fusion, cranked up to the neon-drenched, rebellious 1950s, then smashing straight into the heart of a 21st-century punk concert. It’s where the slick, suave sophistication of pompadours and victory rolls meet the edgy, anarchic spirit of leather jackets worn with an air of defiance.

In the contemporary scene Rockabilly is kicking, screaming, and sliding across the stage in a pair of polished creepers, is a glorious mash-up of vintage mood and modern swagger, assuring us that some things—like the thrill of a double bass and the roar of a vintage engine—are timeless. –You can read more about the Rockabilly history on our subculture blog here.
