The Black Jack Gypsys — 3:1

Oklahoma City trio The Black Jack Gypsys doesn’t engage in any rock ’n’ roll posturing in its debut EP, 3:1. It’s the real deal.

Parker Millsap and Michael Rose — Palisade

Fledgling singer-songwriter and Purcell native Parker Millsap builds quite a foundation with stand-up bassist Michael Rose on their debut, Palisade. From the sounds of it, a monumental career is in the works.

VOTD: Typhoon climbs a tree for La Blogotheque


Dogs, hanging instruments and hipsters all around you. Sounds like a typical Take Away Show to me.

By Matt Carney July 22nd, 2011


The 2000s saw folk singers assemble indie-orchestra bands loaded with violins, cute musician girls and scruffy faces (Sufjan Stevens, Lost in the Trees, Austin, Texas's Mother Falcon).

Portland’s Typhoon just may have literally taken this sub-sub-genre as high as it’s ever gone.
