The very first DRMF festival show – our inaugural show. We weren’t sure what the future would hold, but we were sure that we wanted to bring live music to the good citizens of McAlester, Oklahoma. We almost could not imagine that the first would lead to a second. But it did. So the first, will always be one of our favorites.

Lineup

Charlie Parr
Headliner

Charlie Parr

Charlie Parr is a Duluth, Minnesota fingerpicker who plays country-blues like a man channeling ghosts. Decades of road dust live in his weathered voice and steel-string ramble, and his songs carry the weight of folk tradition without ever feeling like a museum piece. Hypnotic, humble, and utterly his own.

Jake Simpson

Jake Simpson

Jake Simpson is a fiddle-slinging Oklahoma-and-Texas talent equally at home sawing a barn-burner or singing a tender ballad. A road-tested player with deep roots in the regional scene, he brings energy and genuine chops to every stage. A homegrown favorite worth showing up early for.
