Four miles north of Pryor, Oklahoma, along Hwy 69 on the fabled Rocklahoma festival grounds, is the premier Red Dirt, Country and Americana music and camping festival known as Born & Raised. In only its third year of production, the line-up continues to dazzle with top names in the genres. Each year, the dates have moved around a little in the month of September with this year’s festivities running September 13-16. The week provided beautiful weather – dry and mostly sunny the entire time. It was even a bit cooler than I remember from my past attendance which was most welcoming.
Saturday night’s show with Chris Jones and the Flycatchers, RC & The Ambers and Kyle Nix and the 38’s, might have been one of the best shows of 2021. Normally you don’t see this many members of The Turnpike Troubadours on the stage at Cain’s Ballroom without it being New Year’s Eve, but Saturday night was an exception. The line to get into Cain’s stretched down the block, a line full of many people who had driven in from other cities and states after rumors had been swirling all week that the show would turn into a Turnpike Troubadours reunion. This was largely due to the news that the Troubadours had reunited and would be hosting a show at Red Rocks on May 14th.
