    MEMPHIS, TN - Could this be a sign of the beginning of the end? What started in Memphis in 1954 is back again with a brand new rockabilly trio! That's right - a rockabilly band that's actually from Memphis! Many people come to Memphis to visit Graceland and Sun Studio, but are disapointed when they try to find live rockabilly bands. A few places in town do a great job bringing in bands from all over the United States & Europe, but there were no Memphis rockabilly acts to be found - until now!
