Stillwater band Other Lives is about a month away from opening for the guy who’s the odds-on favorite for album of the year right now (can you say national exposure?). But currently, they’re about to jet off to Europe for a string of festival and small-venue dates. It appears that it’ll be a few months before they perform in Oklahoma again.
But fear not, friends! KEXP Radio in Seattle shot five live-in-studio performances by Jesse Tabish and company. “For 12” is my favorite here, but please watch them and let me know what you think. I can’t overstate how great it is that Other Lives is representing Oklahoma to indie audiences across the country and Europe right now.

A collective carnivorous cry rang out earlier this year when the Nichols
Hills ham joint, Divine Swine, closed its doors. The eatery’s concept
had been one that Chef Josh Valentine kept near and dear to his heart.

seared pork loin reflected his pork-centric predilection.

The sense of community inspired by the Oklahoma City Thunder has
captured national attention since the team’s city debut in 2008. From
posh luxury boxes to the upper-level $10 seats in the aptly named Loud
City, Thunder games amount to a party where everyone is invited.

Chicken-Fried News didn’t realize Kevin Durant still had any ties left
to cut with Seattle. But the Thunder superstar, who began his NBA career
with the team formerly known as the SuperSonics, recently sold his
house on Washington’s Mercer Island for a cool $2.4 million.
