Despite the fact that the heyday rockabilly falls on the 1950s, and today in the world there are many fans of this music and the lifestyle that rock 'n' rollers led half a century ago. It took Jennifer Greenberg 10 years to collect these photos, during which time she met many members of the rockabilly community living in different parts of the world. Of America.

Jennifer Greenberg is a 36-year-old assistant professor of photography at a university in Indiana. Over the years of communication with rockabilly fans, she made sure that these people not only outwardly imitate the fashion of the 50s, but also live as a single community, supporting each other. Most of them live outside the city and try to make their homes as comfortable as possible.

The middle of the 20th century was a period when the American industry developed under the sign of love and respect for the consumer. Designers tried to create beautiful and practical things that would serve their owners for a long time. Rockabilly people do not recognize anything that is "made in China" today, because these are goods that instantly fail and cannot be repaired.

Jennifer Greenberg notes that rockabilly fans live in different cities of America, including bankers, workers, teachers, doctors. These socially responsible professions were respected in the 1950s, so today rockabilly people continue to do what really benefits people. Despite their hobbies, most of them observe the dress code during working hours, and at their leisure they allow themselves to look the way they want. By the way, it is easier for women in this regard, because the classic pencil skirt, popular in those years, has not yet gone out of fashion.

True devotees make sure to drive Cadillacs who know how to get repaired when needed. In general, the ability to "bring back to life" broken things is a distinctive feature of people who do not recognize a consumer society in which everything is built on the race for new and new things.

By the way, they also bring up their children correctly: they completely do not recognize Justin Bieber, who is popular among young people, but they adore rock and roll. Over the years of the project, Jennifer Greenberg herself has become close to a huge number of people who have become real friends for her. She now knows for sure that at any time she can call one of them, come to visit and are guaranteed to get a reason to smile, a glass of water and a vest, in which she can cry in case of need.
