Maybe there's just not much else to do there? 
Anyhow, a quick statistical check reveals that California, New York, Florida, and Nevada are the top states for entertainers, in general.  |

Here's a few that I know of, limited to mostly Country Music and in no particular order. Most are Oklahoma born - Don't get me started on the ones that are imported and call Oklahoma their home!
Woody Guthrie, Patti Page, Roger Miller, Johnny Bond, Garth Brooks, Anita Bryant, Gene Autry, Hoyt Axton, JJ Cale, Leon Russell, Norma Jean, Wade Hayes, Vince Gill, Joe Diffee, Ty England, Molly Bee, Henson Cargill, Merle Kilgore, Bryan White, Roger Miller, Toby Keith, Reba, Pake, & Susie McEntire, Sandi Patti, Blake Shelton, Jamie Richards, B.J. Thomas, Tommy Overstreet, Jimmy Webb, Carrie Underwood, Sheb Wooley, Me, Mel McDaniel, and Wanda Jackson. I think there's some rock groups with origins here: Flaming Lips & All American Rejects. Don't think they use Pedal Steel, so I don't know much about them.
Donny - Come see us, and I'll show you some cool stuff to do! |

| I'm out here in the Cross Timbers of Oklahoma and enjoy settin' in my Rockin' Chair, on the back porch every mornin' and havin' my Hot Tea, listenin' to the Birds, Cows, Coyotes, and anything else that cares to chime in..... Then this Fri. night, I'm off to play my Emmons at The White Trash Pasture Party in Fargo Okla...... The cost of livin' is low, the Peace and Quiet is Tremendous unless my neighbor is teaching a gun class. Then it sounds like a 9mm&45Cal. war goin' on......There's always somethin' goin' on in Okla.....That's Why We Love it Here. |
