The Bakersfield Glee Club formed in Melbourne in 2009 and have been impressing the local music scene with weekly gigs ever since.

Members of Redfish Bluegrass, Austin Floyd, Silver City Highway & Dirty York try their hand at traditional country. A masterful combination of fiddle, pedal steel guitar, telecaster, bass and drums brings these old sounds back to life. Bakersfield, California, a place where townsfolk seemingly had a high threshold for treble frequencies, 10 to 50khz. A place where telecaster, pedal steel and fiddle reigned supreme behind a rock solid rhythm section.

The Bakersfield Glee Club chicken pick, pluck and slick slide their way thru some of country music’s treasure chest whilst maintaining the same humourless expressions as their heroes.
