The first person to use the term “Rockabilly”, according to Wikipedia, was American Country and Rockabilly singer Bill Flagg. He started out as a “singing cowboy”, calling himself The Lone Pine Cowboy. He briefly moved to bluegrass before his friend, John Sligar, and he changed to Rockabilly in 1954. He wasn’t the first to play rockabilly. It was a well-established sound by then. But he is credited with first using the term to describe the music.
