IndianGiver — Plafond EP

If you were to peruse the “About” section of IndianGiver’s Facebook page, you’ll notice how the instruments attributed to each of the Oklahoma City band’s five members are described with downright flippancy: Dylan Jordan plays “sticks & animal skins,” while Jazzton Rodriguez earns his keep with “shanties & loud noises,” and so on.

Various artists — Never Give Up: Celebrating 10 Years of The Postal Service

Few indie bands have had the impact on current music that The Postal Service has. Even fewer have done so with only one album.

Big Worm — Bench All-Stars

Fans of the comedy classic Friday may recognize the name Big Worm, but the Big Worm behind Bench All-Stars is rooted not in South Central L.A., but on the streets of Oklahoma City.

Code 22 — Going Soft: The Acoustic Album!

The guys of Oklahoma City’s Code 22 seem like a likable group of fellas. Their latest release, Going Soft: The Acoustic Album!, is likable enough as well — so likable that on first listen, I took its clean, acoustic sound and clear, unstressed vocals as an alternative praise-and-worship band.

Eureeka — Polysynthetic Fields

It’s always refreshing to hear music that embraces its own eccentricity, yet presents it in an accessible and meek fashion. Eureeka — the Norman-based duo of Jordan Vargas and Devin Wahl — has tapped into this rarified air on its self-released EP, Polysynthetic Fields.

How ‘Bazaar’


Hear awesome local music AND save your money this New Year’s Eve.

Too poor to catch the Flaming Lips' Yoko Ono-assisted New Year's Eve Freakout this year?

Then join the rest of the 99% at The Abner Ale House in Norman (121 E. Main St., aka McNellie’s), where Blackwatch Studios will be gettin’ down without a cover charge, at their New Years’ Eve Bazaar.

Norman native Jacob Abello (pictured) is in town from Austin, Tex., and will ring in the new year along with Chrome Pony, Evangelicals’ Josh Jones, and more, from 9 p.m. until close. Rumors of a dance party and karaoke are currently swirling.

Must be 21+ to enter.
