Rockabilly
Rockabilly is one of the earliest styles of rock and roll, fusing the twang and storytelling of Southern country ("hillbilly") with the driving backbeat and boogie of rhythm & blues and jump blues. It is marked by slap‑back echo on vocals and guitar, slapping upright bass, twangy hollow‑body electrics, and energetic, danceable grooves. The classic rockabilly sound emerged from mid‑1950s Memphis studios such as Sun Records, where minimal drum kits (or none at all) mixed with percussive bass and bright, overdriven guitars. Songs are typically short, hooky, and built on 12‑bar blues or simple I–IV–V progressions, with lyrics about love, cars, dancing, and youthful rebellion.
