For over twenty years, Chase Kerby has been a mainstay of the OKC music scene. He's fronted a number of bands including The City Lives, Defining Times, and currently 3 piece indie-punk band Big Weather. He's also played guitar and piano for a number of artists ranging from Graham Colton to Sherree Chamberlain and is currently a long time member of Beau Jennings and the Tigers. In 2015 he appeared on NBC's The Voice as a member of Gwen Stefani's team. After his departure from the show he focused on crafting his unique blend of songwriting, ambience, and lyrical poetry for what will be his long overdue debut full length album coming in 2024.
Indie rock outfit Beau Jennings & The Tigers present their new single 'People in This Town', out June 9 via Oklahoma-based record label Black Mesa Records. What starts as a scrappy ten seconds of scuffling and static emerges as a summer anthem from this Oklahoma band. With their classic 80's AM radio American rock n' roll sound filtered through their collective influences (gospel, country, folk, and indie rock), the single follows 2022's full-length album 'Heavy Light', which drew critical parallels to Tom Petty, The Wallflowers and Bruce Springsteen, and subsequent singles 'I've Got Your Heart Right Here' and 'Midnight Service'. Jennings' recording has just reached the two decade mark, in that time having collaborated with the likes of Sufjan Stevens, Richard Swift and filmmaker Bradley Beesley (Fearless Freaks, Okie Noodling) and shared the stage with Dwight Yoakam, Robert Cray, Heartless Bastards, Ray Wylie Hubbard and John Moreland. In this new single, Jennings imagines the patrons of a bar on the outskirts—inspired by a real blink-and-you'll-miss-it building in his hometown of Norman, Oklahoma. Having barely noticed it for much of his life, a recent drive nearby prompted Jennings to conjure the figures who might be congregating there. “'People In This Town' is really just about the overlooked or hidden aspects of a small town that are often taken for granted. Norman, OK is governed by religion, sports, and partying and while that maybe isn't that different from other places, those are still powerful forces that shape people's lives,” says Beau Jennings. #Music #Interviews #SocialMedia #Beau #America #Artists #BruceSpringsteen

Welcome to Tulsa Talks presented by Tulsa Regional Chamber. I'm your host Tim Landes.Through my writings for TulsaPeople, I often get to share stories of people from all walks of life. For the past two years I wrote a monthly piece called I Am. I've shared the stories of Tulsans who are trans, blind, gay, Buddhist, and the list goes on. If you're a longtime listener to this podcast, you've heard a wide range of guests in conversation.I love how diverse our city is. Diverse people offer diverse ideas. We're not all supposed to share the same views or beliefs, but we should be able to live together successfully. That's what makes a community and makes it thrive. The reason I'm talking so much about diversity is because my guest on this episode is Jonathan Long, Tulsa Regional Chamber's new VP of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.As you'll hear Jonathan is passionate about his work and understands what we need to do to keep growing in a positive way and why DEI is so important for future success. Jonathan talks about the easy steps every Tulsan can take whether as an individual or business owner to grow your circles with more diversity and inclusion. He also discusses why it's important that we all continue to do measurable actions that go beyond making pledges or commitments to be better to ensure we have an optimal community full of thriving diversity. Not all the talk is about DEI. We also talked about why the 40 under 40 honoree chose to leave Wichita to come to Tulsa and what he's found that he loves since moving here this summer. I had a great time getting to know Jonathan and look forward to checking in down the road to see how we're all doing. Following my conversation with him, hear a new single from Beau Jennings and The Tigers. More on that later.OK, let's get this going. This is Tulsa Talks with Jonathan Long. Beau Jennings and the Tigers just released the EP “Feel the Sun.” They will celebrate it with a release party on Nov. 19 at Mercury Lounge. Speaking of the Merc, we twice highlight them in the November issue. It is among the best places to catch a show in Tulsa and they also have a new beer they partnered with Heirloom Rustic Ales to make.Beau has long been one of the staples of the Tulsa music scene, and if you catch him live you're guaranteed to have fun time. If you want to learn more about him visit his website at beaujennings.com and Facebook.com/beaujenningsok. And that's Beau spelled BEAU.And with that here is the EP title track, “Feel the Sun.”
