THE MUSIC
Tulsa indigenous doom metal channeling folklore traditions through modern lenses of environmentalism and injustice. It will get heavy. It will get loud. Medicine Horse is the caliber of thunder that makes the Great Plains great.
Oklahoma City Hip-hop/R&B with explosive energy and a flamboyant confidence unequaled in the scene. Also a long-standing member of supergroup Sativa Prophets, Mars Deli changes up the vibe when given an ample stage to indulge in his solo escapades.
Oklahoma City glam garage rock with catchy doubled vocals and riffy guitars. Bad Athlete knows a thing or two about celebrating Halloween out of season, having released songs like “Scream Queens” and “Night Witch” in Januaries of years past.
Norman goth cowboy club music from one of Oklahoma DIY’s greats. Laine’s Heathen Boots melds low-voiced southern drawl with a darkwave dance pulse to create a uniquely post-modern American electronic sound.
COSTUME CONTEST / FESTIVITIES
We will have prizes in 3 categories: best costume, weirdest costume, and people’s choice costume!
Tacos will be for sale from neighborhood pop-up Taqueria Y Tortilleria Lupita!
