The Oklahoma Kid formed in Tulsa as a trio with Velvet Feel on vocals and keyboards, bassist Thomas Jones, and drummer Samuel Davis. They released their debut album 'A Velvet Feel' in 2007, which included the title track and other songs like 'Come Undone' and 'Melt Into You'.
In 2011, Velvet Feel was arrested for possession of illegal substances, an incident that brought attention to their struggles with mental health and addiction. These themes sometimes surfaced in their music alongside their folk and rock influences.
They went on to release several more albums including 'The Ballad of the Broken Heart' and 'Whispers in the Wind,' continuing to work with songs like 'Dye Black To Pink' and 'Lost Purpose' in their catalog.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
