2024 Lineup

Gannon Fremin & CCREV

At 8-years together, Gannon Fremin & CCREV have gone from the new kids on the red dirt block into a powerhouse rockin’ powerhouse that encompasses the grit of Southwest Oklahoma with the independent and rowdy spirit that sets Okies apart from most folks. With the a powerhouse frontman in singer/guitarist Fremin, songs merge that connection to the red dirt roots made firm from the seeds planted by Cody Canada by way of the lyricsm of youth and angst found in Kurt Cobain’s best work. With lead guitarist Travis Julian growing into one of the young rock guitar heroes on the map and the rock solid rhythm section of bassist Wade Cartwright and drummer Tyler McCartney, this 4-piece carries the rustic range of the Red Dirt Rangers blended with the punk power of The Stooges in their prime to bring something special to the stage.

Adara Kay

Born & Raised in Southern Oklahoma, Adara Kay found her grit and rock energy the first time she stepped on stage in 2018. Since then, she has perfected a high energy performance that watchers will remember down the road. She's been able to not only share the stage with other independent artists, but she's also been able to introduce new songwriters from other states into the Oklahoma music scene.

Influenced by Country & Rock artists like Koe Wetzel, Giovannie & The Hired Guns, The Wight Lighters, Larkin Poe, Dorothy, and more, Adara Kay was inspired to put her spin on the genres to create a sense of freedom, carefree, and badass affirmations for all to appreciate.
