RockAbilly. US is a Citrus County, Florida-based music showband, with over 40 members, specializing in large production music shows. Their name is also their website address.

Using professionally choreographed singing and dancing and spontaneous skits, combined with various styles of lavish costumes, their shows usually consist of various songs within the genres of oldies, pop music, country music, and a tribute to Elvis Presley in the style of his 1970s concerts, summarized collectively by the group as "rockabilly". Their original musical compositions are somewhat more modern sounding, but they claim those songs are performed in a manner that gives them appeal with older as well as younger audiences.

The group's debut on March 13, 2005 at the Sumter County Fair's 50th anniversary has brought them much attention. New shows are being scheduled now, including performances at the Citrus County Fair Auditorium, the Sumter County fairgrounds and the Austin Horse Park located near The Villages, Florida.
