LISTEN TO ORGANUM ARTISTS 24/7 ON CHEESE FACTORY RADIO!!! WWW.CheeseFactoryRadio.com
There's a movement in Tulsa's music scene right now that many aren't aware of. With all the talk of scenes--the indie scene, the radio rock scene, the metal scene, the rockabilly scene, the red dirt scene-people can easily forget that at the end of the day, the quantification of generic differences can sometimes be counterproductive to the common goal of local musicians. That goal-to create music and retain inspiration-is something that can get lost in the shuffle of growth and competition.
Establishing a unique voice and pursuing higher forms of recognition are two things that every unsigned artist pursues avidly, but the idea of enjoying the moment by simply finding new forms of inspiration within the local bubble is something that many artists do not understand or are flat-out not interested in.
But within the storm of attempting to achieve fame, fortune and artistic recognition on a national level, there's a calm center. There are groups of musicians who aren't so much concerned about money, image and recognition as they are about continuing to push themselves and others to create. One such group is a local collective of Tulsa musicians, dubbed Organum Records. Despite the name, Organum isn't a record label so much as it's a loose group of like-minded artists who are determined to grow as artists through cooperation and camaraderie.
Mark Kuykendall has long been associated with ..The Doldrums, but he also has a solo project in The New Honey Shade. He's recorded parts for Dead Sea Choir and he frequently contributes to various other bands and projects. With a recording arts degree from Full Sail he is also recording and producing Ep's as well as full length albums for fellow Organum members and many other local Tulsa artists.
The Aycock brothers alone have their artistic finger prints all over numerous projects across town.
This group defies the ego-driven autonomy that's so prevalent among many other artists. The need for recognition, the desire to be the frontman, these are not traits that one finds in Organum.
