Manson Grant presents his tribute to the pioneer of The Bakersfield Sound. Buck Owens (1929–2006) was an American country music singer, songwriter, and bandleader, best known as the pioneer of the Bakersfield Sound, a rawer, electrified alternative to the smoother Nashville Sound of the 1950s and '60s. He was the frontman of Buck Owens and the Buckaroos, scoring 21 No. 1 hits on the Billboard country charts, including classics like Act Naturally, Together Again, and Love’s Gonna Live Here. His influence extended to later country and rock artists, including Dwight Yoakam. Owens also gained widespread fame as the co-host of the long-running TV show Hee Haw (1969–1986), which brought his music and humour to a national audience. Despite his mainstream success, he remained committed to a honky-tonk style of country music, characterised by twangy Telecaster guitars and straightforward storytelling.
