K95.5 Second Annual Unplugged Concert

Tulsa country station K95.5 fm just recently began putting together a multi artist acoustic show called Unplugged. This year's Unplugged concert featured Drew Baldridge ("Dance With Ya"), Clare Dunn ("Tuxedo"), Jordan Rager ("Southern Boy"), and William Michael Morgan ("I Met A Girl"). Events like these, with the artists on stage together, are extremely enjoyable for fans and end up feeling like a huge party. Tonight's show was no different. It was my first time seeing all four artists live. While they may be new on the country music scene, every one of them owned the stage tonight like a seasoned pro. The first one to perform was Drew Baldridge.

Drew Baldrige

Baldridge played a few different songs for us including "Train," the pending title track for his upcoming album "Dirt On Us," and his up tempo single "Dance With Ya." A song that, as you may have guessed, had everyone in the audience dancing along to each beat. He interacted with the audience, told a few stories, and showcased some great guitar skills to back up his amazing voice. I highly recommend giving his EP Dance With Ya a listen. Clare Dunn performed next.

The upbeat Dunn was having such a great time she was Snapchatting the show from her perspective. Let me just say it was that fun for us too. Dunn played us a few songs from her self-titled EP that included the touching song "Old Hat," "Cowboy Side Of You," and the very catchy single "Tuxedo." One of the highlights tonight was how each artist shared and helped us get to know them. Dunn told us it was her first time playing in Tulsa and I just have to say Clare Dunn you can return anytime! Next to play was Jordan Rager.

Rager made the night of a couple fans when he acknowledged them from the stage. It was a lot of fun watching their reaction and corresponding smiles. "Underage," "Party Like You," and his current single that features Jason Aldean, "Southern Boy," were a few of the songs this talented singer performed. He, like the other artists, engaged the audience throughout the show with different stories like his pretty funny lead in to "Underage." The last performer of the night was Mississippi native William Michael Morgan.

As the subject of one this blog's prior Artist 411 articles (something I have officially started planning out for the other three artists) I was very excited to see Morgan perform live for the first time tonight. Morgan, like Baldridge and Dunn, has a phenomenal EP out. Morgan's EP is self-titled, like Dunn's, and available on most music platforms. Among the songs Morgan played was a song that is sure to be an "instant classic" called "Vinyl," "Cheap Cologne," and his current radio single "I Met A Girl." After the show Morgan came out to sign autographs, take pictures, and shake hands with the fans. This talented artist is perhaps the best definition of a sweet southern gentleman. He was humble and kind with everyone he encountered.

The stunning array of original music was not the only treat of the night. There were a few well-know covers performed as well. Each leading to a crowd sing-a-long with fellow artist participation as well. Drew Baldridge got everyone moving with "Shut Up & Dance." Clare Dunn pulled out a rather incredible version of the classic "Fishin' In The Dark," while Jordan Rager performed a rather stunning cover of "Brand New Man" and William Michael Morgan sang an impressive rendition of "Friends In Low Places." There is no doubt each cover did the original artist seriously proud. The proceeds from sales tonight went to help St. Jude's hospital and the work they do. This year's Unplugged is definitely one for the books. I want to say thank you to the artists for such a great night, K95.5 for putting it all together and my concert buddy Skyla for the great photos above.

I highly recommend keeping an eye on each of these artists. You can follow each of them on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
