This Is the song our "Oh Carolina" dress is named after! Such a good song! It was written back in 1958 by John Folkes, and performed by his Trio, The Folkes Brothers. It's about his girlfriend who was actually named Noelena. Have a listen down here vvv

Oh Carolina, by The Folkes Brothers

Early reggae doesn't get the attention it deserves. We love early reggae because it's so rock and roll!!! That's why we named a dress after this classic!! Another great song you should check out is The Israelites, by Desmond Dekker. (The 1968 version is the best)

That's this week's post! As always, Feel free to send us any old Rock and Roll songs that inspire you, or any old obscure rock and roll songs that you think we should know about! You can send us an email, or leave us a comment in the comments section below. We'd love to do a post on your fave old rock and roll artists!!

The "Rockabilly Gal" dress gets its name from the song of the same title. It was a collaboration by Roy Orbison, (one of our personal faves), and Hayden Thompson. This was a Sun Records release. It's a slow swingin' tune with a goooooood beat! Have a listen!

Hayden Thompson. He's no Elvis, but he'll have to do...

So weird to see Roy Orbison without his trademark Ray-Bans

One of our original "Rockabilly Gal" dresses, named after the song!

Roy Orbison put out a lot of songs with Sun Records that don't get the attention they deserve. If you get a chance you should also check out "I was Fool" and "You Tell Me". A couple of excellent Roy Orbison releases from Sun records. You can thank me later ;)
