Description

Like the modern Teen Beat phenomenon, Teen Idols is a category based more on public persona than musical genre. From Frankie Avalon to David Cassidy, these performers were as famous for their charisma and physical attractiveness as they were for their songs. Though the music all shares an emphasis on melodic and rhythmic hooks, the specific style tends to mirror the rock and pop trends of the individual star's moment.
