Mike McClure writes songs. He's written a whole lot of them. So many that he probably doesn't remember how all of them go. His songs are so good that other people like to sing them. Super famous people. Mike McClure has a band. There are three of them. They have instruments and they play them. They also have a van they ride around in. Mike also makes records. He's made a lot of them. He also makes records for other people. You've probably heard some of them. Mike also likes swords and looking at weird things in antique stores. He raises ducks and geese or some kind of bird. He also raises kids. Life is funny and Mike McClure laughs at it.
with
Them Damn Quails
http://www.thedamnquails.com/
The Damn Quails are one of those bands that only comes around once in a great while. One minute you've never heard of them, and the next minute they are on the tip of everyone's tongue. It's as if the planets aligned for a moment so that Gabe Marshall and Bryon White would cross paths and start playing, writing, and most importantly singing together. The inflections in their voices match each other to the point where the sound seems to come from one body. Their harmonies bring to mind great duos like The Everly Brothers and Simon and Garfunkel. Their songwriting is also equally matched. Steeped in the great Oklahoma songwriting tradition, these boys obviously learned a few lessons from their predecessors without giving a single thought to trying to duplicate anything that came before. Armed with a band nicknamed the "Quail Philharmonic", the band brings a new yet familiar sound that seems to have caught the ear of the listening world.
and
Jessey General Thompson

Jessey General Thompson is a 22 year old singer-songwriter from Roff, Oklahoma. He began playing the local music circuit with JAGG. It was in this band he began recording with Mike McClure and Travis Linville. He was playing lead guitar and not yet writing songs. McClure and Thompson became friends and he started recording some of his earliest compositions at the Boohatch Studio in Ada, OK. Over the course of several years Jessey came into his own writing songs and recording. McClure was impressed enough to offer Thompson a deal on 598 Recordings. His self-titled debut album was mixed by Trent Bell (Bell Labs, Chainsaw Kittens) and is set to release in October of 2012.
