LYCOS RETRIEVER 
Yell: Rebel Yell
built 655 days ago
Rebel Yell reflects the nostalgia of a childhood spent in the glory days of the late 70’s and early 80’s. From the clothing to the distinct name, the inspiration for the line has and always will be from owner and designer Andi Ballard’s memories of growing up in Virginia. And what better way to epitomize her rowdy, all-American childhood than her favorite wooden roller coaster ‘The Rebel Yell.’ Raised by a fashion loving folk-rock musician mom, Ballard’s style influences started young. There was never a shortage of inspiring fashion, art and music around the house when she was growing up. With the classic rock greats echoing through her design studio, Ballard set out to create a line of clothing reminiscent of the styles she grew up with: playful, comfortable and all things vintage.

One of the enduring legends of the War Between the States is that of the Rebel Yell. Various primary and secondary sources declare that the sound made by victorious Confederate soldiers was so singularly unique, so unforgettable, so commanding, that some federal units became demoralized and fled when they first heard it. Other, equally romantic accounts speak of Southern units competing to be the "best yelling regiment" in their brigade, or of becoming known as a "good yelling unit." Douglass Southall Freeman, biographer of Lee and author of Lee's Lieutenants once described it as "the pibroch of Southern fealty." A "pibroch" is a musical piece, usually for the bagpipe, usually martial. "Fealty" refers to absolute loyalty, as that of a vassal to a feudal lord.
