THIS is what the theme is all about. The definition of hulbilly right here. The merging of hapahaole and rockabilly. A GREAT song by a great rockabilly singer.

Lucky, you hit it on the head. This one's a classic. The true Hulabilly period is really short 1957-1960
Smokey Joe Baugh and Bill Haley being two of the bigger acts putting out "Hula" singles in 1957, then Elvis Presley with "Rock a Hula"
BUT
That won't stop us here at Tiki Oasis headquarters from making signatured corn cob pipes for attendees to enjoy while sittin on their porch!!
