Brierly Hill 90210 presents... 1957

As I work on this series, I'm still fascinated by the highs, lows and lulls that are outside of my control. The working title of the series was “chronology” and, as much as possible, I let that tell it's own story. The music, news and entertainment timelines drive the narrative. While there is still excitement and a newness to the music of 1957, worldwide events seem to be taking a pause, to catch their breath after the upheaval of 1956 and social change coming in the 1960s. That's not to say there aren't some significant headlines in 1957. But it still feels like a “filler year” between what came before and what's still to come. See if you agree as you sit back and let the sounds of the year wash over you. Welcome to 1957.
