Music, fashion Americana style

THE Dusty Rebels & The Bombshells Lifestyle Festival returns this Saturday. Fans of all things 40s, 50s, and 60s will once again descend upon the West Coast Ostrich Ranch for the fourth annual one day lifestyle showcase.

This year, the festival has titled the day Rockin’ & Riding, an accurate description of this family-friendly celebration of fashion, food, music, cars, motorcycles and sports from the golden age of Americana and social culture.

So what’s to see and do? New to DRTB is a skate and BMX mini ramp with demos; members of the public are also invited to skate and BMX. There will be a fun fair, a special Levi’s Tailor shop and loads of vendors proffering clothing, accessories, vintage memorabilia, custom bikes, tattoos, food and more, a Jack Daniel’s bar for the adults, and a separate kiddies area.

On the entertainment front, the main stage will be lit up by some of the country’s finest genre DJs and live acts including Martin Rocka and the Sick Shop, Lonesome Dave Ferguson, The Ratrod Cats, Three More White Guys, The Dixie Pricks, Gunshot Blue, Dan Valley and the Countrymen, and a special appearance by Taxi Violence.

The Blue Haired Betty will host the Miss Bombshell Betty pin-up pageant on the main stage. Car buffs can occupy the popular dirt track, where drivers and riders get to kick up the dust around the dirt corners all day. Ogle the classic car and bike show and exhibition hosted by Rockstar Cars.
