Casey Friedman first invited singing musicians to his place above Horn Trader Music Sept. 29 2010.  The idea was you had to sing and accompany yourself with an instrument.  That was a challenge for a woman who plays fiddle, but I did it!
     Pretty soon he had a weekly showcase.  The first venue to host was the now defunct Prohibition Room.  VZDs.   and Picasso on Paseo have also provided a venue. Currently as of 10/12 Acoustic Oklahoma showcase is at SAINTS on 16th in the OKC Plaza District.  Wednesdays and Thursdays 9-late!!  Saints is a hip and fun place.
     Casey at AO, thank you! You do a great service for local musicians!  We have a community and gathering point now.  You've made a phenomenal data base (and historical document) of Oklahoma musicians.  This project has really opened up the music scene around here.  There are so many exciting and inspiring performers I have learned of through AO.  
      Local Honey was just kicking off around the same time AO started up. We have AO to thank for all our videos on You tube and the majority of our concert and studio photography.  All of which were done free of charge, not just for Local Honey, but all the AO musicians. 
Love for music and musicians is what drives Casey to do this.

Another update from 11/12: I am not neutral or impartial when it comes to Casey.  He is my love interest since 12/11!
