Episode 114: The Fall and Rise (Again) of Tiki Culture
Description
We’ve been exploring the Polynesian Pop trend that swept suburbia. From the 1930s to the ‘70s, tiki culture was everywhere. And then, like the tide going out, it was gone.
Today we talk about the factors that brought it back in the late ‘90s and early 2000s (hint: swing, thrifting and SpongeBob) and how tiki is influencing artists today.
Grab a Bahama Mama and join our conga line as we swing, sway and sashay back into the bar.
