Check out this upbeat, poppy ditty from Oklahoma City-native Allie Lauren.
Lauren is living in Arkansas but she’s still determined to play at home. She’s even got a gig this week at RAW: Oklahoma City.
We promise her performance will be twice as infectious and fan as her kazoo solo.
Our van doesn’t break down often, but when it does then it does it in style.
Right as Chelsey Cope and company started her Spy Van performance, our fearless driver Ferris O’Brien let out an audible groan as the van halted in the middle of the road.
“Hang on,” he said.
But with a quick push, the van settled in a post office parking lot and the festivities began.
Cope invited her friends Alex Coleman and Alberto Roubert to fill the spaces of her heartfelt rendition of “Journey Down St. Vincent.”
We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

When something’s simple, it’s usually because someone worked hard to make it that way.
That’s precisely why we think OK Sweetheart deserves attention.
Erin Austin isn’t living in Tulsa anymore, but she still plays in Oklahoma under the moniker OK Sweetheart during her active tour schedule and makes sweet ’60s-inspired pop songs sound as easy as Sunday morning.
If you are in Norman this week and have the means then we highly suggest you visit OK Sweetheart and Brine Webb performing at The Opolis.
It can be a lot of work getting to a show, but you should know OK Sweetheart will make it easy on you.

You’re not going to find a hotter band in this country.
But that’s mostly because Dallas-based rockers Jonathan Tyler and the Northern Lights decided to play in OKC in the midst of the hottest summer in the our planet’s history.
However, JTNL is toasty warm in other ways too.
We mean career wise.
The band recently got off of a blistering tour with Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, and the Texans are working on a Fall tour.
The VDub crew was lucky enough to grab JTNL just long enough for the band to bust out a brand new unreleased tune. As soon as the song was done, everyone bolted out of the van.
It wasn’t because of Ferris’ driving, it was because the van become an inferno.
If you don’t believe how hot it was, watch closely because throughout the new episode and you’ll see beads of sweat dripping off of drummer Jordan Cain.
BTW, Jordan has a sweet knuckle tat.
He was hanging out in the top of the camper portion of the van.
We told you this band was hot.
Get used to it.
