Join us for an unforgettable night of music, community, and generosity on Thursday, December 11, 2025, from 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm, at the iconic Temblor Brewing Company GuitarMasters’ annual holiday concert, “Christmas with The Cranktones,” benefitting the Kern County Cancer Foundation (KCCF) and brings together music lovers, local businesses, and community leaders to support Kern County cancer patients by raising vital funds to help covers the costs of essential medical treatments.
This concert will feature a one-of-a-kind performance by “The Cranktones,” a group of renowned musicians who gather each year to spread holiday cheer through music. Led by Carl Verheyen, legendary guitarist of Supertramp fame, The Cranktones have made “Christmas with The Cranktones” a Bakersfield tradition for the past decade. With enthusiastic, audiences and heartfelt performances, this concert has raised nearly half a million dollars for KCCF over the years.
Event organizer Rick Kreiser shares, “This show has become a cornerstone of Guitar Masters’ mission to bring the community together through music and give back to those in need.” In 2024 alone, applications for assistance from KCCF doubled, underscoring the critical impact of events like this in helping patients afford life-saving treatments.
We invite you to be a part of this meaningful tradition. By sponsoring this event, your business will not only receive high-visibility exposure but also contribute to a cause that directly benefits local families facing cancer. Your support, along with ticket sales and other donations, has helped us raise $60,000 in past events, and we hope to surpass that milestone this year.
Please consider joining us as a sponsor and help make a difference in the lives of those who need it most.
