Description

Highlighting the musical currents that have swept from Oklahoma across the world, it traces the tributaries of individual style and talent as they merge to form the river of songs unique to OklahomaÕs rich culture. John Wooley paints a vivid panorama of the artists, the business behind the scenes, and the strong sense of community they share. From the jazz influence of the Oklahoma City Blue Devils to the power of western swing, the Tulsa Sound, Red Dirt, and a growing list of mega-country stars, he captures the explosion of musicians who transformed their Oklahoma energy and soul into magic on stages across the world.
