About the Event
Join the Autry for happy hour! Enjoy live music and dancing on the plaza!
Put on your dancin’ boots and come on down to the Autry for two Western Swing dance lessons by The Honky Tonk Hunnies and two live performances by The Soda Crackers!
With a goal to bring back the "classics," The Soda Crackers from Bakersfield—a five-piece band whose average age barely cracks the 30-something barrier—are in full swing. Make that full Bakersfield sound with a nice helping of Western swing thrown in as a side dish of sorts. The Soda Crackers celebrate the unsung heroes of the Bakersfield sound, the B-side gems that never get played, and the showmanship plus the instrumentation that all the greats brought to the smoky ol' beer joints and dance halls from years gone by.
