About Bakersfield, CA

Oildale, Greenacres, Rosedale, Fruitvale, Greenfield, Fuller Acres, Pumpkin Center, Lamont

Bakersfield has a rich musical heritage.  Buck Owens, a famous country music star, is from the city and he, with a group of musicians from the 1950’s and 1960’s, developed a type of music referred to as Bakersfield country.  The music is regarded as a honky-tonk spinoff and features pedal steel guitar, intense vocals and the Fender Telecaster (an electric guitar).  This helped establish the area as the third most prolific country music spot behind only Nashville and Texas.  Merle Haggard is also a product of the community.  Utilizing counseling Bakersfield is an excellent way to identify ways to strengthen your relationships and focus on the purpose for your life. One of country music’s most respected venues, the Buck Owens’ Crystal Palace, continues to showcase both up and coming and established country music acts.  Buck Owens’ eldest son, Buddy Alan, performs at the Crystal Palace regularly with his band, The Buckaroos. 

 
Other music was influenced by the Bakersfield county sound.  Rock music was influenced by music from the area.  The Rolling Stones based the song “Far Away Eyes” on the style.  The sound is not the only connection as the city is mentioned in the first line of the song.  Other musicians who have referenced the city in their work include Buck Owens, the Grateful Dead, and Johnny Cash.  References to the area are not limited only to music.  The town has been mentioned in literature as well.  Some authors who have noted the area include John Steinbeck, Jack Kerouac, Joseph Wambaugh, and Beverly Cleary.  Christian counseling Bakersfieldoffers foundation change for families, marriages, and individuals.  The Bakersfield Museum of Art is an important part of the local arts landscape.  It has featured the works of Norman Rockwell, Georgia O’Keefe and Frederick Remington among others.

 

On Individual Growth:    The past is permanent and your decisions are like roads on an infinite terrain: they may be paved over, but the new road will have to accommodate yours; they may end up broken and overgrown, but then the surrounding area will need to work around you; raodways may even have to be dynamited to make way for someone else, but that requires the “someone else” to exert tremendous effort and ingenuity in the process. You—just by existing—are making a difference. You are the point of change for every subsequent generation. What choices will you make?
