Fascinating Fifties
Music
South Australia
Welcome to the Fifties! After the turmoil of the war, the fifties were years
of prosperity, leisure and fun - people now had the means, and the time to
enjoy it! This was the decade of pop-up toasters, ponytails, and the pill.
The television was the new source of popular culture and fashion,
presenting the stylish and the suave, supporting the rise of the Hollywood
Star, the Broadway Musical, and the Sporting Hero.
Musically, jazz, swing, blues, and Latin rhythms were well-established, and their popularity continued. And amongst it all, rock'n'roll arrived!
The versatile Ikonic is delighted to present a taste of it all, the fun and the familiar. So walk away from the juke box, slick back your hair, jump in the FJ Holden, and head on down to join us!
