Buddy Holly: The Rock ‘n’ Roll Pioneer

Before the Beatles, before Dylan, before rock really found its voice—there was Buddy Holly. In this episode of The Echo Lab, we dive deep into the story of the bespectacled kid from Lubbock, Texas, who changed everything in just 18 months. From his pioneering songwriting and boundary-pushing recording techniques to the tragic plane crash that took his life at 22, this is the story of a quiet genius whose influence still echoes through modern music. Discover how Buddy helped invent the rock band, mentored future legends without ever meeting them, and left behind a legacy louder than the day the music died.
