Brothers Bill, Jim, Bob and Lyle Mabe began Branson's first live entertainment show in 1959. Mixing gospel, country, blue-grass and patriotic music with zany comedy, the original Baldknobbers Jamboree created the prototype for what has become the live entertainment capital of the world.

Now almost fifty years later, the Mabe Family continues their family legacy of great country music and hilarious comedy!

Baldknobbers Show Producer, Tim Mabe anchors the talented family by following in his father's footsteps as the character, Droopy Drawers, Jr. Tim is joined on stage by his wife Patty and son Brandon, who both are vocalists on the Baldknobbers stage.

Tim says, "My dad and uncles started something special in 1959. I am so proud to carry on the family tradition of great country music and comedy. Our show is collaborative and every person on our stage contributes something unique to make the Baldknobbers what we are! Dad taught me that!"

Lyle's son Brent Mabe plays base and is the band leader. Bill's grandchildren, Joy Bilyeu, Garrett Mabe and Denton Mabe carry on their grandfather's legacy of great vocals and family harmony.

"This show is all I have ever known. I have met some great friends through the show and the entire cast is our family. I feel so lucky to be able to do what I love to do, by playing music and entertaining people and still get be with my family every night. It is the best job in the world," said Brent Mabe.

"During my grandfather's illness we spoke of my time with the Baldknobbers Show, and he told me how much it meant having the family continue the show. I am excited to join my cousins in carrying on the legacy," said Joy.

Today's Baldknobbers Jamboree Music Show is an entertainment powerhouse honoring God and country with a patriotic blend of classic and contemporary country, golden gospel and outrageous comedy. Our cast of seasoned professionals is proud to present a fun-filled family show that touches the hearts and funny bones of all ages.
