Promo for a documentary film, currently in production, about the Bakersfield Sound, which revolutionized country-western music.
One of our recent projects was the preservation of Merle Haggard's childhood home; a boxcar which his father converted to a home in Oildale, California. Through our efforts it was acquired and moved to Pioneer Village at the Kern County Museum in Bakersfield, where it can be seen and appreciated by all.
We began in 2005 when we donated the Lopez-Hill House to Pioneer Village. This Victorian home was built by J.J. Lopez, the historic figure who ran Tejon Ranch from the late 1800s until the 1930s. Without our efforts, this landmark home would have been lost to history. It is now preserved for all to enjoy at Pioneer Village.

Cittizens Preserving History and Barbee Film Productions are proud to announce the release of their historic video documentary..."TREBLE AND TWANG...The Music That Came Out Of Bakersfield"!
As the acclaimed Country Music Historian, Scott B. Bomar, said, "Whenever anyone asks...'What is the Bakersfield Sound?'...That's the $20 million dollar question...You'll get a lot of different answers!"
This documentary tells the story of the desperation endured by the Dust Bowl immigrants as they traveled to and settled in California! It is the mission of Citizens Preserving History to honor these humble yet proud people, who created the music that paved the way for Buck Owens and Merle Haggard to take the "Country World by Storm" with the music that later came to be known as the Bakersfield Sound!
