Rockabilly Groups The Style and the Music

Even if you’ve never heard of rockabilly, rockabilly groups are easy to spot. The music, as well as the clothing and hairstyle, are all very distinct. Rockabilly groups can be spotted from a mile away with their pompadour hair and creeper shoes. You’ll notice the unique musical style right away. Singers yelp, gulp, and stutter through their songs, backed by an elemental but strong beat. Rockabilly groups sing about cars, about girls, about aliens, or about anything else that comes to mind. There are no rules and no holds barred for a rockabilly groups when it comes to song writing. Whatever inspires you to get up and holler to a beat that blends rhythm and blues with basic country is acceptable.

Sam Phillips of Sun Records recorded Elvis Presley, Scotty Moore, and Bill Black on July 5, 1954, when they were “taking a break” from their recording sessions in Memphis. The trio started playing around, with Moore saying that Elvis was jumping around and singing. Phillips overheard their monkeying around and asked them to start again for the record. This began the era of the rockabilly groups that, though short lived, sparked an interest in rock and roll that is still alive today. Rockabilly groups came back into the spotlight in the 1980’s, with The Stray Cats. Mimicking the 1950’s rockabilly style of hair and clothing, they brought back to life the look of the rockabilly groups and reinvented the crazy sound of rockabilly music. Rockabilly groups aren’t seen as often today as they were in the 1950’s; the true form of the music and style passed on right along with Buddy Holly in the infamous plane crash of 1959, but the spirit lives on with many rockabilly groupss today who credit the 1950’s idols that sparked a movement and created a genre.
