Professional, efficient, and quality…read more I hired Bakersfield Music to provide and run a sound system for a show out in Springville in November. In the icy cold land of no cell phone service, muddy dirt roads, uncommunicative event coordinators, and early hours, Reggie and his assistant got to the gig and set up with swiftness and efficiency. Contacting Reggie and booking the date was simple, the show sounded great, and best of all, the price was reasonable. I will definitely be calling up Bakersfield Music for any future events in the area.

Talented artist filled the stage. 12 member band left them little room to move but it looked like they had a blast performing. Ordering drinks and snacks is easy but come early if you want to eat. The sound and lighting is very good in this small venue and I especially like that they don't have it so loud your eardrums are going to rupture! Staff is very accommodating and knowledgeable. If you have an issue with anything just ask. Bartenders are quick and the drinks are good. Expect to pay premium prices. Don't forget to grab some popcorn before the show start. Oh yeah, the upstairs bar is Cash Only! You can purchase drinks with a card down stairs then take your receipt upstairs for a drink. Find a concert you'd like to see and give this place a try! I think you'll enjoy it!
