What is the rockabilly culture?
Sent from my iPad
Perhaps I should have said that rockabilly is more of a sub-culture than a culture. The rockabilly culture is a lifestyle that is more like living in the 1950’s rather than in 2018. The sub-culture includes fashion, automobiles, hairstyles, furniture, tattoos, and additional features associated with the 50’s. Most importantly, the music from the 1950’s is associated with the rockabilly community. If you are interested, there has been much written about increasing interest in the rockabilly movement. Interestingly, in my town (a New York City suburb), there is a barbershop called “Rockabillys”.
