Indorock

From HitStory, the pop encyclopedia of School of Rock · Genre

Indorock · After 1949, Indo-Dutch people brought krontjong and the Hawaiian guitar with them; with American country and rock 'n' roll, this fused in the Netherlands into indorock. It is fast, often instrumental guitar music with a lot of echo and a wild show. The Tielman Brothers played in German clubs from 1959, a year before the Beatles came to Hamburg in 1960.

Listening

Listening tip. Listen to Rock Little Baby of Mine for the way an echo unit makes every fast guitar note reverberate.
