I first saw the Oak Hill Drifters in 2013 when they were the opening act playing in a tiny bar in Sanford FL as part of a little Pin-Up model event (click here). After that I’d catch them here and there around town and have really come to love their fun banter, the cozy places they play at and the amazing talent they present. Since December (2015) I decided to bring my cameras to their events and capture some of the fun (apologies about the lousy lighting for most of the videos, but the sound is great!). Enjoy.
