Most everyone who knows anything about rockabilly will agree that the musical genre came about as musicians of the 1950s mixed country music and blues music together. In actuality, you really have to throw rhythm and blues music into the mix and also sprinkle in a healthy dose of gospel music. I'd argue that there was a pinch of jazz music thrown into the original mix too, but you don't often hear people supporting that argument. But the Stray Cats guitarist and front man, Brian Setzer, made it perfectly clear that jazz has a place in the rockabilly genre.
