The Red Dirt Rangers have been carrying the banner and “spreading the gospel” of Red Dirt music since 1988 taking it from Stillwater to cities and towns from coast to coast and border to border as well as European tours and cities around the globe. It all began in a two-story, five- bedroom, funky old place called THE Farm.

The Red Dirt Rangers continue to carry the torch for Red Dirt music: that funky mix of Americana meets Rock and Roll meets Woody Guthrie and Bob Wills. Now celebrating their 38th year, the Red Dirt Rangers are one of the hottest live bands around still playing more than 100 dates a year around the country and with some of the finest musicians from around the world sitting in.

Acts such as Mike McClure, Cross Canadian Ragweed, Jason Boland and the Stragglers, Cody Canada, Monica Taylor, Stoney LaRue, Brandon Jenkins and more learned their craft jamming with the Rangers, Skinner, Childers and whomever happened to be staying out at the Farm that night. The Farm just made everybody better and that is reflected in the hundreds of hours of music that has evolved from the Red Dirt scene.

The Rangers were inducted into the Oklahoma Music Hall of Fame in 2017, joining Childers, LaFave, Skinner and Crouch as representatives of the Hall for Red Dirt Music.

As their song says, “Kick back and enjoy the ride”…and most of all, keep on spreadin’ the dirt!
