building-sized Woody Guthrie is tough to ignore.

If you didn’t see photos of Jack Fowler’s artwork projected on the Oklahoma Capitol recently then you aren’t following people who are unhappy with the political landscape of our state.

Here’s a quick recap in case you missed it. On Feb. 27, Fowler teamed up with Stephen Tyler to project an iconic, enormous image of Guthrie against a white construction tarp hanging on the Capitol.

The artist reached out to followers asking what phrase they’d like projected onto Guthrie’s guitar in the future. When Fowler returned, the power was cut to a nearby outlet. When he retaliated with a generator, Highway Patrol cars arrived and foiled the project. This all happened during a stretch of a few evenings.

Authorities cited the projection as a safety risk. At the end of the day, Fowler and Co. just weren’t welcome to protest in such a fashion. The idea was flashy and impressive, but I don’t think anyone expected it to be a sustainable protest.

Either way, one thing stuck out to me: Dissent is a tricky business.

Going against the grain is something Guthrie understood very well. As Paste Magazine pointed out in a 2013 review of the “American Radical Patriot” collection: “No artist — not Dylan, Joe Strummer, Michael Franti, Bob Marley, Billy Bragg or Phil Ochs — has ever expressed a deeper will to fight against oppression and the rights of ‘the little guy’ than

Woody Guthrie.”

Scratch beyond the surface of Guthrie, and you’ll learn he wasn’t always thrilled with the U.S. His omnipresent “This Land Is Your Land” track was a social commentary sparked by his irritation with Kate Smith’s rendition of “God Bless America.” I don’t think Guthrie hated his country. Rather, I believe he disliked what he saw happening to it and how it was being represented.

So, he crafted hundreds and hundreds of tracks, worked alongside the U.S. government on songwriting projects and cemented a legacy that’s unparalleled, even to this day. There’s a reason we’re talking about the Okemah-born songwriter 100 years after he was born. He created in a way that was sustainable and his message continues to get amplified through places like the Woody Guthrie Center and even Fowler’s artwork. I happen to own a piece of his artwork, too.

One fact remains comforting after Fowler’s protest. There’s a painting of Guthrie hanging inside the Oklahoma Capitol already. It’s currently in storage, but will likely return after renovations. I hope that painting stays there forever just like I hope Fowler’s work finds another avenue and it sparks people to speak their mind in a constructive manner.

We’re all looking for comfort. It’s just a bumpy road to get there.

In this Feb. 27 photo provided by Heide Brandes, an image of folks singer Woody Guthrie is projected on tarps at the Oklahoma Capitol in Oklahoma City. Oklahoma City artist Jack Fowler says he projected an image the iconic singer in an effort to get people to “shake up the powers that be.” The Oklahoma Office of Management and Enterprise Services said in a statement that the projection is prohibited due to safety concerns for crews working at night on a restoration project at the Capitol.

Upscale condos planned for Automobile Alley

ick Preftakes, who pioneered downtown housing more than 20 years ago, is set to build the first new for-sale condominiums at a key gateway to Automobile Alley and downtown.

The Broadway Condominiums, set to open in mid-2018, would be the first residential offering to be built along Automobile Alley since the pioneer homes of 1889.

The $12 million project will be built on what is currently a surface parking lot at NW 6 and Broadway.

MARCH 9–22, 2017

The project is being developed by Preftakes, who along with Mark Ruffin developed The Garage Lofts at NW 13 and Broadway in 1995.

Preftakes also redeveloped Oklahoma City office buildings in the late 1990s. He has built urban housing in other states, but this will be his first residential project in downtown Oklahoma City.

The five-story building is being designed by Bockus Payne Associates. Architect Bruce Bockus said the building’s design strikes a balance between modern convenience and Broadway’s history aesthetic.

CONDOS CONTINUED FROM 6 positions the project as the southern gateway linking Automobile Alley with the Central Business District,” Payne said. “It was critical for the design to honor the history of its unique context while at the same time serving as a gateway to the exciting transformation of our incredible city’s core.”

Preftakes presented the plans recently to the Automobile Alley board of directors. He is seeking the board's endorsement before the project is submitted to the Downtown Design Review Committee.

Preftakes is expecting questions about the use of the first floor.

Parking will be on the ground floor behind a street-level facade of window display cases that will showcase work from local artists and promotions

from community organizations.

Collin Fleck, project architect, said neon accents will be featured on the exterior to fit in with the neon signage that can be found throughout Automobile Alley.

“The majority of the structure will be characterized by the brick aesthetic for which Automobile Alley is known,” Fleck said. “The focal feature will be a contemporary composition of architectural metal and glass carved out of the building’s corner to distinguish the modern era of its inception and to highlight the building’s unbeatable downtown views.”

IN THE CENTER OF IT ALL Preftakes said the project is targeted at those who crave a vibrant city lifestyle and want to be in the center of it all with walkability to local restaurants and access to the future streetcar. With a southfacing terrace, expansive windows and 12-foot-high

CITY NEWS

ceilings, each unit will offer skyline views.

The development was inspired by talks between Preftakes and friends about shaking up their living arrangements now that kids are grown.

“My wife and I were talking with friends, interested in an ‘urban lock-and-leave’ home that required less maintenance, with close proximity to our burgeoning downtown,” Preftakes said. “But that didn’t exist. So we are creating it.”

The 12 condominiums, ranging from 1,600 to 3,300 square feet, will sell at between $600,000 and $1.5 million. The residences will be offered for sale through Wendy Chong with ReMax Preferred Properties.

“This is a real stretch for Oklahoma City,” Preftakes said.

“It’s an expensive building. There are not two-byfours in it, no stucco. It’s a small footprint with no economies of scale. It’s serious. I don’t know if there is a market, but I believe there is a market.”

The five-story Condominiums on Broadway will include ground floor parking that will be fronted by display case windows dedicated to local artists and community organizations.

BALMY BUSINESS Local teen successfully launches business from her home

BY JACK MONEY For LOOKatOKC

M

argo Gianos is honestly original.

Like other 16-year-olds, she’s focused on school, her athletics, social media, good television shows, her friends and her family.

But unlike most girls her age, she has her own company — one that’s really successful.

Honestly Margo produces and sells a line of all-natural lip and body balms, certified organic balms and a vapor balm.

So far, Honestly Margo’s products are sold in about 400 locations in the U.S., Canada and Australia.

Its products also are featured on the Grommet website, and a show about Margo and two other young, successful entrepreneurs recently appeared on The Learning Channel.

Margo, of Oklahoma City, said she’s been interested in having her own business since when she began making cat toys at home and selling them in her front yard.

“I was always coming up with different things to make and sell,” she said. “I would, not that I needed to, but because it was fun. I got a thrill out of it. It was exciting for me.”

Margo said she became interested in beauty products when she turned 11.

“I couldn’t wear makeup, though,” Margo said. “That is when I was like, OK, lip balm sounds like a good idea. It sounds like something that I can wear. So that’s when I decided to start trying to come up with my formula.”

So, she and her mom, Irene Gianos, got to work in the family kitchen.

On the company’s website, Margo explains that she and her mom worked together to find the best natural ingredients for the project.

After sharing the balm with her friends, Margo said they wanted more — lots more — and when her mom told her they could turn it into something special, she was all in.

MARGO CONTINUED FROM 8 “Three months later, Honestly Margo was born,” Margo said.

‘JUST THE BEGINNING’ On the website, Margo said Honestly Margo brings together two things she loves, starting her own business and beauty. “This endeavor represents my first adventure into business, but it’s just the beginning,” she continued.

“I think my products represent girls of today. Girls are smarter than ever before, and we’re taking the things we’ve been given and mixing them together in new and better ways. Honestly Margo is about pure ingredients, but it’s also about dreaming big, and taking a chance.”

The first retailer to carry Honestly Margo’s products was Cayman’s Clothiers Inc. in Norman, a business owned by a woman entrepreneur who inspired Margo, Irene Gianos said.

“She could see a bit of that in her, that drive, and was totally on board, wanting to support her,” Irene Gianos said.

Honestly Margo’s products began

getting picked up by other retailers, its growth aided by social media campaigns on various platforms. Getting products onto the Grommet website also was a huge boost, both Margo and Irene Gianos said.

The site launches undiscovered products that have a purpose and are invented by people with stories, language on the Grommet website reads.

Margo said having her products featured on the Grommet website is “a crowning jewel that shines brightly, assuring me that I am on the right path.”

Irene Gianos added the social media efforts of Honestly Margo and the company’s website also are vital in maintaining momentum.

The site features not only Honestly Margo’s products, but also introduces Margo to her customers. “We can reach people globally,” Irene Gianos said.

“It is free. It tells a better story. It is visual.

Customers can see her, the product, and get a chance to know her. It paints a story.”

Honestly Margo’s products are produced in the United States, and she and her mom continue to visit regularly about the enterprise, both said.

“I am planning on expanding its retail distribution and also coming out with new products very soon,” Margo said.

OFF THE HOOK

Corey and Loniesha Harris have grown their food truck into a full-scale restaurant

BY DAVE CATHEY For LOOKatOKC

OFF THE HOOK IS JUST THAT Chef Corey Harris makes Smothered Seafood Fries on Feb. 15 at Off the Hook Seafood and More in Oklahoma City.

PAGE 10

MARCH 9–22, 2017

ff the Hook isn’t cutting bait, but the popular fast-casual seafood concept soon will be casting its line into larger waters.

What started as a notion from a player on Oklahoma City’s first NBA team is now a favorite haunt of its current team, according to the photos on the wall-of-fame around the corner from the register.

The popular fast-casual concept started in a truck, graduated into a small restaurant and is now on the precipice of going full-service.

First things first, for the unannointed, Off the Hook is the playground of chef Corey Harris and his wife, Loniesha. Harris said he grew up in a family where food and cooking was held in reverence, and after knocking around in odd jobs committed himself to the School of Culinary Arts at Platt College.

That led to a job at the Ford Center, now Chesapeake Energy Arena, when Loniesha said a member of the New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets was so impressed with her husband’s skills that he said they should start a food truck together.

The Hornets left town, but the inspiration remained.

“That ended up falling through,” Loniesha Tempson-Harris said. “So we ended up doing it ourselves.”

But not before they saved some money — Corey, as an instructor at Platt College where he graduated, and Loniesha, selling real estate.

Loniesha, who you’ll usually find wearing a T-shirt with “Boss Lady” emblazoned across the shoulders, said when they got the truck up and running in 2013, they planned to operate it on weekends only. But within six months, the trajectory changed.

“Everywhere that we went, we had a line that was stacked up,” Loniesha said. “People would drive from all over to eat with us, pretty soon they were saying, ‘You all need a restaurant, we’re tired of chasing the truck.’ “ So they did.

“We lived around the corner, and I actually came over here to eat and it was closed. It had a ‘closed’ sign, and everything was inside,”

Co-owner Loniesha Tempson-Harris stands behind the counter Feb. 15 at Off the Hook Seafood and More. [PHOTOS BY NATE BILLINGS] Loniesha said. “Ever since then I started stalking the restaurant.”

She said once the “for lease” sign went up, they pounced.

‘GAME-CHANGER’ But Off the Hook has outgrown the former coffee shop and Korean taco joint it occupies.

The Harrises are poised to take over a vacant space on S Meridian in the spring, though no deal has yet been finalized.

If that deal does come to fruition, Corey Harris said the menu will have one major change.

“A bar,” Harris said. “We’re going to try to experiment with some frozen margaritas and some local beers.”

The other thing it will have is plenty of room to relax and enjoy those drinks.

“I’d say it’s at least three times larger than this place,” Harris said. “It’ll be a game-changer for sure.”

He also said he’ll be looking for live musicians and customers seeking a place to kick back and enjoy it with comfort food and a few cold ones.

Off the Hook is only open until 4 p.m., so if you want a big batch of Corey’s gumbo, you’ll need to call it in for pickup. Loniesha said they only accept carryout orders of $50 or more, but that’s a cinch with the variety of this menu.

I’ve eaten at Off the Hook a number of times and found the catfish filet crisp, flaky and SEE CHEF, 11

fried shrimp and fish plus oven-roasted chicken.

But Corey says the heavyweight champ of his menu is the Smothered Seafood Fries. “One day I was doing a catering on the truck, and I had some lobster cream sauce and I had some fries. I dipped the fries into the sauce, and it was delicious,” Corey said. “So over time I just started adding more stuff like cheese, fried onion and bacon — now it’s our No. 1 seller.”

He also said the secret weapon on his menu is the Jerk Chicken Kabobs, which consists of chicken marinated in a house-made sauce and fresh vegetables chargrilled and served hot on skewer.

“It takes about 10 minutes, but folks who’ve ordered it know it’s worth the wait,” Harris said.

Don’t sleep on the Seafood Wontons either. This mixture of red onion, chili sauce, lump crab, shrimp, crawfish, garlic and cream cheese.

Perhaps the most striking thing on the menu is the cheapest: Kool-Aid pickles. Selling for $1, these fat dill pickle halves are exactly what they sound like: pickles marinated in Kool-Aid. I recommend the Green Apple.

OKC band overcomes own ‘Trials & Truths’ on road to new album

BY NATHAN POPPE | LOOKatOKC Editor Actual thieves would’ve stolen Horse Thief’s instruments if the band wasn’t onstage using them.

In December, the Oklahoma City band was devastated after their tour van was broken into during a stop in Portland, Oregon. The quintet lost a safe, along with passports, iPads, computers, clothes and roughly $4,000 in sold merchandise.

Horse Thief frontman Cameron Neal was at a complete loss. As were his bandmates Cody Fowler

(bass), Alex Coleman (guitar, keys), Alberto Roubert (drums, percussion) and Zach Zeller (guitar, keys).

“We were debating, do we just drive home? Do we finish our three shows? Do we call it quits?”

Neal told LOOKatOKC. “We kept going, and the big reason was because people bought tickets to the shows.”

This is the moment where a lot of people would call it quits. But at 2 a.m., Neal returned to his hotel room, hopped online and shared what happened

via the crowdsourcing website GoFundMe. “The main reason we decided to ask for help was because we had no other choice. ... All that money was going to pay off the tour we were just on,” Neal said. “We were about to leave for Europe. To go to Europe, it’d cost you $1,200 to replace all your passports.”

Two days later, the band received nearly $8,000 in donations from friends, musicians and music SEE Q&A, 15

LOOKATOKC.COM

HORSE THIEF

Q&A CONTINUED FROM 14 enthusiasts.

“For us, I think it was an eye opener,” Neal said. “There’s people that really care about the music and really care about this band. The least that we can do is to keep it going.”

On Jan. 27, Horse Thief released a new LP called “Trials & Truths” via Bella Union. I sat down with Neal to discuss the fresh sophomore album, the rocky road to its creation and starting work on a third record at Blackwatch Studios.

Q: A sophomore record can be over-

whelming for a lot of reasons. What is like tackling that on “Trials & Truths?”

Cameron Neal: One of the main reasons we named it “Trials & Truths” was because it wasn’t the easiest road. Basically, once we fished recording, we learned a lot because we messed up a ton of things. ... We were trying to be a lot more specific about what we wanted as a band. I think it was hard to focus on that when we were traveling so much.

It’s a really good album to describe where we were at that time. ... I think it was hard for everybody in the band financially. There’s also relationships back at home and things like that. I think it was the first time we all had to step back and figure out how we were going to really do this.

Q:

When did you settle on that album title?

Neal: We settled on a name last summer.

It was fully done. For me, I like that idea of looking back and making records that act as a snapshot. It doesn’t have to relate to things five years down the road. ... That’s the coolest thing about looking at bands that have 10 albums. You go to their first three albums, and they sound almost nothing like their newest albums. You can get a glimpse into where that band was at the time.

Q:

Your bandmate Cody Fowler called the new record a testament to Horse Thief as a band. So, what makes you believe in your bandmates?

Neal: One thing we’ve always said since day one as a band was there should be no

M U S I C F E AT U R E

walls between us. So, everybody knows what everybody is feeling. That’s extremely important when you’re spending a lot of time with somebody in a van or inside the studio.

I think all of us turned to the music to try get away from everything else in life. At the end of the day, we were meeting up to make music, and that’s when I felt the most happy.

We had to keep going. It feels that way now, too. It doesn’t feel like, “Oh, it’s hard so we should put it down and drop it.” It’s hard, so we should keep going and really see it out because we already know music matters a lot to us. ... We can’t let the everyday life stuff get us down.

Q:

How much touring did you do for your previous record, “Fear in Bliss?”

Did time on the road inform the new album?

Neal: That was a huge part of us getting closer as musicians. Obviously, we’re stuck in a van together all the time and playing together every night. We did two full U.S. tours, three full European tours in a year and a half. That’s a ton. In the grand scheme of things, it doesn’t seem like a lot. Every tour for us, we would get a little bit better together and tighter. ... We would listen to demos in our van. We would demo in hotels if we had a couple days off.

We were doing all these little things we didn’t do on the first record. We were listening to the songs and discussing them before we were even writing them. We would listen to s----- iPhone recordings and say ‘This part could be cool, but let’s use it on another song and mix them together.’ By the time we got home from the two-week tour, we’d be able to play the song.

Q:

There was a three year gap between “Fear in Bliss” and “Trails & Truths.” Will your album cycle continue at that pace?

Neal: No, we’re trying to get them out faster now. We’re starting on a third record next week. I’m literally starting demos tomorrow. We were always writing. I’ve got songs ready for that. … We’re not sure where we’ll go to actually record, or if it we’ll do it all here. There’s thoughts I might buy a bunch of gear, and we’ll do it ourselves at my house.

We’ve never done that, and I like the idea.

It might end up being self-produced for the next record.

hen things get strange, Annie Oakley writes on.

Sophia Babb co-fronts the Oklahoma City-based Americana-leaning act with her twin sister, Grace Babb. Both songwriters, 19, grew up listening to Bible stories, but one narrative stuck out to Sophia.

“The story of Abraham and Isaac seemed particularly strange to me,” Sophia shared via email.

“The whole idea of a test of faith that involved killing one’s own child put me off, so I wrote ‘Abraham’ as a way of simplifying the absurdity. ‘Just doing what’s asked’ has been and remains a religious justification for all sorts of evil, and this song speaks to that by telling a story about what Isaac’s perspective might have been.”

The Babbs joined recording engineer Brine Webb at Lunar Manor, a literal underground recording studio in Oklahoma City, to record alongside Nia Personette (violin), Kyle Reid (pedal steel, cigar box guitar), David Leach (upright bass). The resulting “Lunar Manor Sessions” mini EP captures three rootsy tunes, including “Abraham,” and it landed Feb. 27.

Q&A CONTINUED FROM 16 I caught up with the sisters to discuss growing up, getting creative and changing their sound.

Q:

I think you both were 16 the first time I saw you perform. How has your attitude toward pursuing music changed since you started, and how are you balancing music with life?

Grace Babb: We’ll be turning 20 this year, which feels ridiculously old. I’m pretty sure I still act like a 9-year-old on and off stage. Despite my inner child, my attitude toward pursuing music has matured. It’s more flexible but also more serious. Pursuing a broadcast journalism degree while also pursuing music has

showed me that I can actually do it all, but at the cost of my free time. I love both paths, and they work well together, so it’s worth it. But it’s not easy.

Sophia Babb: My attitude towards music has always been one of reverence, but I have more tools to honor songwriting and performing now.

Though my sound may have changed since I started playing shows, my ambition has remained constant: Tell stories through music. I’m balancing music, a part-time journalist gig, and full-time school all at once. It’s difficult because every bit of every day is owed to an obligation — but at least I’m never bored.

Q:

Your new EP marks a return to Lunar Manor studio in Oklahoma City. What makes that place a fitting place to record?

Grace: This was the first place I

learned how to make a record and all that goes into it. I know the studio well enough to be comfortable and to be able to get creative with the songs.

Sophia: Lunar Manor is fitting for us because Brine Webb, the sound engineer, is brilliantly in tune with the direction of our songs. He knows how to capture us in a way that isn’t far from our live performances, which I really value.

Q:

Tell me more about working with Brine Webb. Besides being pretty hilarious, what was he able to add to the equation on these songs?

Grace: Brine is able to offer a genius ear. He has a talent of adding just the right note here and there, whether it be an organ chord or three notes on an electric guitar. Pure genius.

Q:

Your press materials mentioned your sound is moving toward progressive indie-folk with proto-folk rock finish. So what influenced the departure?

Grace: A lot of my current favorite artists aren’t in the folk genre, so this has bled over into my pool of musical influence.

An electric guitar can add depth and dynamics, and I love having that ability.

Falling in love with the electric guitar has influenced a change in my style and songwriting more than any other factor.

Sophia: As we’ve developed in age and instrumentation, we’ve discovered new routes of expression that don’t always come through folk ballads.

Folk will always be where our roots are, but currently we’re experimenting with sounds and beats that aren’t traditional in folk music, but carry on the tradition of telling stories with song.

It might be easiest to sum up Norman musician Mike Hosty in his own words: “I’m big on ideas.”

Among his near-future recording plans: an album composed solely of songs where he only talks, a “mumbling country” album and assembling a Latin rhythm section in a studio, over which Hosty plans to PAGE 18

play the blues. If these ideas sound incongruous, it’s because they are, or because you haven’t yet seen Hosty or his Hosty Duo in concert and don’t realize that he’s a common thread strong enough for it all to make sense.

If the latter is true, and you’re an avid Oklahoma music fan, it’s safe to say your required reading isn’t complete.

Start at Hosty’s weekly “One

Man Band” show at Norman bar The Deli. Late every Sunday night since 2000, a rowdy assemblage of townies and college students congregates at the charming dive for his residency, which showcases Hosty’s formidable instrumental skill — he’s the guitarist, singer, drummer and kazoo player. It’s also a performance art piece, in a way: topical lyrical asides, commercial audio samples, back-and-forth conversations with

the crowd, comedy bits, free pizza and a humble merchandise display at his feet. It’s not necessarily a typical Hosty show, and that’s by design.

“Year after year, I keep adding something to it,” Hosty said. “Multiple instruments, a sampler, looper, different guitars. I always try to keep it like a talk show, like you’re watching a late-night show with songs, jokes. Make people laugh.”

“

COVER STORY

I like the freedom to play, to go in and out of different things at a moment’s notice.”

– MIKE HOSTY ‘IT MEANT SOMETHING’ Those laughs seem important to 46-yearold Hosty, who released his 16th album in January. Simply titled “Uno,” the album was recorded at The Mousetrap studio in Norman, with producer Carl Amburn. Hosty himself performed all instrumentation on the album (save for a couple of guest vocalists on “turkey gobble sounds”). As he does onstage, Hosty treats all of the songs with equal deadpan levity, right at home on crunchy blues opener “Gonna Get Ya,” an ode to everyone’s favorite shirt-ruining fair food, the “Turkey Leg” and on “Barfight,” what Hosty calls a “talking song I just made up.”

There’s subject matter everywhere to Mike Hosty, which makes sense if you consider his original career path.

“I wanted to write jingles,” Hosty said. “Like (singing) ‘You shop Cimarron Pottery!’ or ‘Jewelry is the gift to give…’ They get played on the radio more than actual songs.

Everyone knows them, and they’re fun to do. I got on a degree path, and OU offered nothing that had anything remotely to do

with jingles.”

Hosty said his advertising degree quickly became worthless once the internet happened and renewed his focus on music. He credits a high school friend named David Rice for urging him to commit to performing music a few years before.

“My first show was in 1987 at the Mistletoe Bash. David said, ‘Hey, get a band together, and I’ll put this party on,’ ” Hosty said. “We were completely awful, but it was so much fun. He was a great motivator, a most likely to succeed guy. That’s where I got started.”

The following years saw 250-plus shows a year and plenty of miles, many of them as half of the guitar-and-drums outfit Hosty Duo, though lately he’s enjoyed, as he puts it, “playing with himself.”

“I like the freedom to play, to go in and out of different things at a moment’s notice,” Hosty said. “It’s been really inspiring after having done the same thing for a long time.”

It has been nearly three decades of constant shows since the Mistletoe Bash, but everything came to an unexpected halt in 2014.

off-the-cuff conversation with a cardiologist friend at a party encouraged Hosty to see a doctor, who told him he had one year to undergo open heart surgery to replace an aortic valve.

“I asked if he’d give me an echocardiogram before the party, and he said yeah as a joke, but that really led me to get a diagnosis,” Hosty said. “I’d always been told I had a heart murmur, but it was a shock.”

He had the procedure in January 2014 and stayed offstage through April 2014, when he returned to performing after being released from a weight restriction — he couldn’t restrict lift his own o musical equipment — and going through cardiac rehabilitation. He said th the health scare lit a bit of a fire, creatively.

“I went in the studio and tried to record every single ssong I have. It was a desperation thing; I w wanted someone to hear them,” Hosty said.

“And it really made me look around a at what I was doing doing, for sure, and take a sec second look at some of

the things I do and places I play.”

For 2017, it appears Hosty’s dance card is full; a glance at his website shows him booked solid through June with local and regional shows, including recent gigs at songwriter havens like Austin’s Saxon Pub and Denton’s Dan’s Silver Leaf, and an upcoming Jazz in June performance in Norman with Eric Clapton drummer Jamie Oldaker.

For all his onstage whimsy, at the core lies a serious musician and a road dog, continuing what he always prefers and what few people stick to these days — aiming to make connections with music fans, face-to-face, and show them his many, many ideas.

“I want people to have fun and listen to songs,” Hosty said. “Interact, engage them. As soon as you see them start smiling, you’re onto something. I understand that hype is important, but I’d rather someone listen to a song and buy a CD because it meant something to them and they want to support it. That means the world to me.”

SEEING ‘RED’ National cowboy museum exhibit showcases the Western bandanna

BY BRANDY MCDONNELL For LOOKatOKC

As far as fashion accessories go, it’s hard to beat one that can be used as a head scarf, earmuffs, neckerchief, headband, arm sling, pot holder, wash cloth, water filter, tourniquet and signal flag.

If a cowboy needs to blindfold a rowdy bronco or shield his face from a cloud of dust, he typically needs look no further than the square of cloth tied somewhere on his person.

ON EXHIBIT “A Yard of Turkey Red: The Western Bandanna”

Heritage Museum weaves together the historical, cultural and fashionable significance of the versatile square of cloth. Prized by 19th-century horsemen for both its practical and decorative qualities and later popularized in Wild West shows, novels and movies, the bandanna is almost as integral to cowboy iconography as hats, boots and spurs.

“The bandannas are really the unique and rare part of this (exhibit),” said Don Reeves, who holds the McCasland Chair of Cowboy Culture at the museum.

“There are fabrics and bandannas that go back to the 1820s, 1840s, several of them from the 1860s. These are things people know — or think they know — about what the Western bandanna is and how it was used by cowboys and others in the West. But there’s a lot more to the story.”

The new exhibit showcases the rare bandannas and black-and-white photographs from the John H. Thillmann collection donated to the museum in 2015.

“He’s been a donor and a friend of the museum for, I don’t know, 25 years. And then he called up one day a few years ago and said, ‘Would you like these two collections?’ And I’ve always coveted themv … so I said, ‘Sure,’ ” Reeves said. “There’s a lot of these (bandannas)

from that era that people have never seen because they were used up, thrown away, became rags. They just didn’t survive. John (had) to spend … decades looking for these, maybe only obtaining one or two year because that’s all he could find. They were that rare.”

In the 19th century, it was common for cowboys to stroll into the local mercantile, buy a square yard of cloth cut from a bolt and tie it around his neck. These days, bandannas are commonplace, mass-produced items that can be found for a cheap price at a big-box or dollar store. But the often paisley-patterned cloth squares have exotic origins.

“It is the story of confluence of cultures: the trade, the Scottish, the Spanish, the Indians. And it’s even relevant today,” said Inez Wolins, the museum’s chief public experience officer.

The word “bandanna” — or “bandana,” as it is typically spelled nowadays — is derived from “bandhnu,” the term used in India for tie-and-dyed trade cloth popular among Europeans since the 17th century.

And “Turkey red” refers not to the North American bird but to the term cloth merchants of Renaissance Europe gave to rich, red-dyed fabric garnered from the Ottoman Empire and India.

The red cotton cloth got its name from the Middle Eastern multistep process of dying fabrics with madder root to produce a cloth that could keep its color even when washed in harsh detergents and exposed to even harsher sunlight.

“Compare these to the bandannas you buy at the dime store, or the dollar store as it is now … and you see the red ones — a certain kind of red — and you see the blue, which we’ll think of as indigo blue.

And it’s the blue of our jeans, and the red is the variation of the Turkey red that was so popular in the 1800s,” Reeves said. “In the hundred years before that and earlier, you had to be wealthy to obtain red cloth.

And then British mills and some of the American mills made it possible with the process of alizarin dyes … so people didn’t have to have much money to have this nice red bandanna that would be color fast.”

“So even today, the two bandannas you see are the Turkey red and the indigo blue,” he added. “And almost all of them have paisleys on them — that’s another part of the story.”

The familiar paisley pattern originated in Persia as a stylized floral motif with religious meaning, and it was used on fine fabrics, including expensive Kashmir shawls brought back to Europe by ship captains and other travelers in the 1700s.

By 1808, the popular swirling pattern was being woven in Paisley, Scotland, and the name of the place stuck with it.

“When we first started talking about it, we thought a lot of people would like

to know more about the cowboys of the West, and how the bandanna was worn in the West, how it was used, what designs there were, what was more popular.

Quickly, as we started working with John Thillmann’s collection of bandannas, we found out that these are amazing fabrics,” Reeves said.

“The people who really have been most excited about this are a number of mostly ladies who are very fascinated in the fabrics. … It’s not often you get to see bolts of fabrics from the 1850s and 1840s, the different patterns that were very popular during the Civil War, and very high-quality examples of them, too. These aren’t pieces with lots of holes in them and all used up; they’re beautiful fabrics.”

DRESSY FLOURISHES While many bandannas were destined for the grimy work of wiping sweaty brows and binding bloody wounds, the exhibition fabrics and photos showcase cloth squares with flashy polka dots, ornate paisleys and veritable gardens of flowers. That’s because colorful, extravagantly patterned bandannas were the go-to accessory of 19th-century working cowboys, who literally had to carry their whole life on their person and their horse.

“If you went to town or went to a dance or whatever, they could afford a fancy piece of cloth. They could put that in their bag,” Reeves said. “They couldn’t keep a topcoat around, these guys, but that was one thing they could afford to dress them up.”

Bandannas continue to be prized for both their utilitarian and ornamental functions. Like the California vaqueros, bikers often wear them on their heads, tied in the back. Farmers, firefighters and outdoors enthusiasts often keep them around as sweatbands or cooling rags.

“It’s pretty au courant to have a bandanna on your dog. You still see kids wearing bandannas,” Wolins said.

The museum is planning Bandanna Week, March 26-April 1, during which people can get free admission when they wear a bandanna.

Pet owners can enter their furry friends into the bandanna pet photography contest, children can make tie-dye bandannas, and history buffs can hear Reeves give a lecture.
