Bucks Stove and Range Company
Artist / Musician

Buck’s Stove and Range Company moved to Chicago from South Central Indiana during the Bluegrass craze of the 1970s and quickly became one of the top bands on the circuit, performing regularly at the Clearwater Saloon on Lincoln Avenue among other venues. Members included the then husband and wife team of Roger and Denise Banister, Charlie Brown, and Brad Hevron.

The museum suffered damage as the result of a microburst in downtown Joliet. The building did sustain some damage however we are extremely grateful that no one was injured during this tragedy. 


We are fortunate that Gigantar, our exhibit artifacts and the gift shop merchandise all escaped any damage. 


We are temporarily closed to the public as we work with our contractors through the cleanup process. 
Please stay tuned as we get back in the groove.
