  • Ever wondered why Elvis Presley couldn't keep his hips still on stage?
    Elvis's iconic hip-shaking wasn't just for show; it was deeply rooted in the energetic performances he witnessed in Black churches and early rhythm and blues acts. Growing up in the South, Elvis was profoundly influenced by gospel singer Sister Rosetta Tharpe, whose spirited guitar playing and stage presence left a lasting impression on him.elvisinfonet.com
    By blending these dynamic movements with his own style, Elvis brought a fresh, provocative energy to mainstream audiences. His gyrations, considered scandalous in the 1950s, challenged societal norms and helped bridge cultural divides through music and dance.Enjoyed this peek into music history?
