Rockabilly: rock·a·bil·ly : Rockabilly is one of the earliest styles of rock and roll music, and it emerged in the early-1950's. The term "rockabilly" is a portmanteau of "rock," from rock and roll, and "hillbilly", the latter a reference to the country music (often called "hillbilly music" in the 1940s and 1950s) that contributed strongly to the style's development. Other important influences on rockabilly include Western Swing, blues, boogie woogie, and Jump blues. Although there are notable exceptions, its origins lie primarily in the Southern USA. The influence and popularity of the style waned in the 1960s. During the late 1970s and early '80s, rockabilly enjoyed a revival of popularity that has endured to the present, often within a rockabilly enthusiast subculture.
