Loads of youths back then helped to revive this trend, which was first discovered in the USA during the 50s. In the 50s, musicians attempted to re-interpret the traditional “black” Rhythm & Blues music genre with (at the time) current instruments, thus creating what we know now as Rock ‘n Roll. This worked out quite well and influences the thousands of rockabillies all over the world today.
During the past decade, musicians such as Gwen Stefani of the band No-Doubt has caused a lot of excitement with her rockabilly hairstyle, and surely has influenced a lot of her female fan-base to follow in her trend-setting footsteps by adapting the same rockabilly hairstyle for women.
