NATHAN POPPE

hat do you mean you haven't BY NATHAN POPPE heard of John Moreland? LOOKATOKC EDITOR That's a question I hope NPOPPE@OPUBCO.COM no music enthusiast, especially one living in Oklahoma, ever has to ask again. But I'll go ahead and answer it at least one more time. Or better yet, I'll allow Becky Carman to do the talking. Turn some pages stat. Her cover story about Moreland joins the proud lineup of her exceedingly excellent music profiles that paint personalities with warmth and accuracy. I especially like how she took notice of the liner notes in John's new album, "High on Tulsa Heat." “This is a record about home. Whatever that is.” That’s written on the inside right jacket of the album. It’s a mission statement. Sort of. If you like Moreland’s music then make sure to secure some tickets to his album release show at the Blue Door on April 17. It’ll feel like he’s playing right in your living room. I’m really excited for John because this year is going to be huge for him. It’s really just a matter of time before his music will push him outside of the country, too. For now though, I’m more than content to catch him in Oklahoma. This issue also notes another big Oklahoma achievement. Sufjan Stevens recorded a healthy chunk of his new album “Carrie & Lowell” right in Norman. In the credits for "Carrie & Lowell," Blackwatch audio engineers Jarod Evans and Chad Copelin are thanked for their work on the album. Folks, that album is going to top more album-of-the-year lists in December than stars will top Christmas trees. It’s a huge deal. Both Moreland and Stevens’ albums are highly introspective, sensitive projects that have a uniquely Midwestern feel to them. They’re honest as they are brutal. I admire “Carrie & Lowell” and “High on Tulsa Heat” and can’t wait to see what sort of impact they make on the musical landscape. They make me feel proud of where I work and live. In a sea of bad news and bummer headlines from our home state this year, I’m still glad that we all have the opportunity to try to elevate these artists. We’ve got a lot of talent here. This state isn’t perfect but the output of incredible music at least tries to say there’s a lot of heart, soul and hard work getting done here.

Five songs to funk up your April listening

headphonetics

“Uptown Funk” that James actually got a songwriting credit. Well here — perhaps in exchange? — he gets to strut around the intro, delivering the sonic equivalent of an empowering selfie. Shamir — “Call It Off” I didn’t get to go to SXSW his year, but I gathered from my Twitter and Instagram feeds that 20-yearold singer Shamir Bailey was one of the festival’s more sought-after artists. Perhaps banking on a strong South By showing, Shamir’s released his second single, titled “Call It Off,” in the festival’s wake, and it’s the catchiest thing I’ve heard in a minute, all neon synthesizers and disco melodies, sold by his sassy attitude. Most impressive though is Shamir’s flair for economical pop songwriting: everything is catchy here, the scant verses, the chorus, even the bridge and cowbell-only breakdown. “Call It Off” comes off as effortlessly conversational and instantly relatable, the kind of song that lasts all summer long on the radio because it’s a welcome surprise in your car. Don’t be surprised if he makes the jump from unknown to the Billboard chart in the next couple of months.

ith South By Southwest in the rear-view window, 2015 is chugging along full-steam in the new music sector. Here are five tracks your iPhone didn’t know it needed. Eskimeaux — “Broken Necks” Lately, when new indie-pop bands show up incorporating stuff like prerecorded drums and

MATT CARNEY All about creating a deeper relationship with music.

synthesizers — bands like Churches and Purity Ring — they skew a little bit louder and more dramatic. Nothing wrong with that, but the end result tends to be something a little colder and more robotic, more distant. So maybe that’s why this new song from Eskimeaux, the solo recording project of Brooklyn’s Gabrielle Smith, feels fresh to me. “Broken Necks,” like the best Postal Service songs, pulls just the right subtle touch of electronica into a very simple, pop arrangement. No vocal fireworks. No gargantuan drops in the beat. Just a bunch of thoughtful words that tell a story you’ll remember tomorrow. Mark Ronson featuring Bruno Mars — “Uptown Funk (Trinidad James Remix)” Part of why Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars’ “Uptown Funk” has proven to be one of this year’s biggest hits is probably because it borrows its songwriting from loads of other funk, soul and hip-hop hits from over the years. It’s a Frankenstein’s monster of a track, composed of catchy chunks from a lot of other songs you know, including but not limited to Sugarhill Gang’s “Jump On it,” James Brown’s “Super Bad,” and who knows how many songs where Parliament Funkadelic made liberal use of the phrase “funk you up.” So it’s kinda fitting that one of the track’s official remixes would feature Trinidad James, whose 2012 hit “All Gold Everything” provided the line “don’t believe me just watch,” which proved so instrumental to

Courtney Barnett — “Depreston” House-hunting isn’t exactly up there with love and death among subjects that yield great, poignant songwriting but that’s exactly what Courtney Barrett finds in a new song titled “Depreston,” where the Australian narrates a relatively tedious drive around a Melbourne suburb. But the level of detail in Barnett’s observations tell a much larger story, one of mutual dependence, class anxiety and even economics and history, as a realtor shows her around the home of a woman who, apparently, recently passed. “Depreston” is a beautiful song. I love to hear a young talent like Barnett taking such a risk on what will be her debut record, out later this month. It doesn’t immediately grab your attention or make you stop what you’re doing to listen: “Depreston” is the warm, comforting middle-of-the-record ballad that you have to find for yourself, the kind that’ll keep you coming back to an album years after it came out. Grimes — “REALiTi” On a trip to Austin in December I went out to a club with some friends and we got in just in time to hear the song “Go” by Grimes, a monstrous EDM banger from a project that the eclectic Canadian has said was scrapped over a year ago. Well now she’s back with a new track suggestive of a very different musical direction, one of softer melodies and subtler dance influences, more trance than dubstep. “REALiTi” finds Grimes projecting a human warmth in place of her usual cyborg vibes, definitely more Mariah Carey than Robyn. It’s a welcome addition to her wardrobe.

xhaling might be the best therapy for a stressful day. With that intention, Udander (Danish for exhale) opened in downtown OKC.

“LOOKatME” focuses on creative people and projects based in Oklahoma.

April 8 - April 21, 2015

Owners Andrea Mason and Katie O’Brien came up with the idea after being inspired by other spas they’ve visited across the country. However, Scandinavia insipired Udander, 131 Dean A. McGee Ave. The concept is new to Oklahoma City and O’Brien said customers are loving it. “We are so excited to see that our concept is resonating with so many,” O’Brien said. “You can stay 45 minutes for just a steam and sauna or a spend a full day with an Udander retreat. It really is tailor made for anyone.” If you retreat to Udander, you’ll notice simple white chairs, a lounge area for reading and relaxing and a menu of food options. There’s even tea and DIY products. “We thought OKC could use a steam and sauna spa concept that was very simple in design and act as a retreat for many,” Mason said. The spa sports a luxurious yet comfortable feel in the lounge area. The spa is clothing optional, which is why there are separate scheduling times for men and women. “Our space is industrial, modern, but was designed so that clients could come in from their busy day and really release from by being in a non-overwhelming space,”

Mason said. The new-age spa is located in the historic Carnegie Center, a former library and now home to apartments, Nourished Food Bar and SIG Art Gallery. It was built as an oasis for those with a hectic schedule. “I think our concept is growing because more and more people are aware that downtime is something that needs to be inserted in their everyday life,” Mason said. When they aren’t giving rest and relaxation to folks, Mason is teaching Barre 3 classes at her studios or hanging with her family at places including The Metro, Flips, Ludivine and Cheevers. “Atmosphere is key and the destination is situational based on the weather and mood,” Mason said. “I love to be cozy no matter what.” You’ll find O’Brien at some of the same spots when she’s not hanging out in Edmond. “I love a cozy date night at Martini Lounge in Edmond on a Friday night and catch the 9 p.m. band,” she said.

SixTwelve becomes center of learning, creativity, sustainability and healthy living

sing brushes loaded with paint almost as bright as the March sunshine, artist Rick Sinnett and a group of gradeschoolers daubed more neon hues onto their colorful canvas, half of what would become an 8-feet-by-8-feet mural. “We’re kind of teaching them the fundamentals of how you hold a brush, how you keep your brushes clean,” Sinnett said during the ﬁrst spring break camp at SixTwelve, a new nonproﬁt community education center in the Paseo Arts District. “You’re basically teaching us art,” said Maxine Hall, an 8-year-old student in the camp. “Yeah, well, you’re teaching us art also,” Sinnett replied. The sentiments are precisely what Amy Young had in mind when she co-founded SixTwelve with James Varnum. Five years after they started the arduous process of restoring a ramshackle former apartment building, the

pair’s dream of creating a space where people can come together to learn about the arts, sustainability and healthy living is beginning to ﬂourish in the historic arts district. “It’s an events center and it’s a place where people can come and have fun together but also to learn from each other. ... It’s a little bit of everything. It’s hopefully a school of progressive thought,” said Young, the center’s programming director. “We’re still not completely ﬁnished, but we’re getting to do a lot of things that we’ve dreamed about doing.”

Five-year process Young said the stately white-painted brick building at 612 NW 29 was developed by G.A. Nichols, who also developed the Paseo, Crown Heights and Nichols Hills. It was built in 1929, but by the time Varnum got the chance to buy it into 2010, it was a mess.

Artists Jason Pawley, left, and Rick Sinnett carry the assembled mural created by students at the new SixTwelve.

“It was a week from being torn down. The city had a dilapidation notice on it and actually had a contract on it to come and tear it down,” Varnum said. “I’d had enough contact with the previous owner that she decided at that point that she’d rather not tear it down and thought maybe we were capable of doing something ... so she actually sold it to me for the cost of the lot.” Then came the long process of stopping the city from demolishing the building, getting the property rezoned and coming up with funds to restore it using recycled, sustainable and energy-efﬁcient materials. “If it was here and salvageable, then we used it, and if it wasn’t, then it was using something renewable and/or also ﬁtting in with the historic fabric, but not necessarily trying to replicate it. It’s kind of a mixture of old and new in there, all of which is somehow renewable,” Varnum said. Early in the long process, Young and Varnum got involved in the Paseo Arts District, invited people

to help out with the building rehabilitation and opened up the grounds for PicnicLand, a space for musical performances and children’s art activities during the annual Paseo Arts Festival. “The mission is sharing tools to build a better community,” said Varnum, who thinks of himself as SixTwelve’s director of vision. “The more open you are and inviting you are to people, that in and of itself creates community. … I think it’s people’s natural inclination to work together and ﬁnd common ground.”

Healthy, sustainable living Since opening in February, SixTwelve has offered after-school children’s classes in art, literacy and sustainability, a composting workshop, poetry and musical performances, its inaugural Mardi Gras Ball fundraiser and the spring break mural camp. Paul Mays, who directs the center’s permaculture program, oversees the tending of the community

gardens on Saturday mornings. “It’s really just about knowing where your food comes from, not having the chemicals and pesticides in them … and raising your own food. And helping each other,” Young said. “We just believe that these communal experiences where people learn and grow without fear is key to happiness.” She said she hopes to offer healthy cooking classes, yoga for children, summer art camps and more. SixTwelve boasts apartment spaces to house artists and teachers, and next month, Young plans to send a local artist to the center’s satellite site in Savannah, Ga. “By the time this summer’s over, we will have done all of the things that we have been dreaming about for the past ﬁve years, and then we can start to build on those things and learn how to do them better,” she said. “We have a lot of plans for the place, but really, it’s going to be dictated by who walks in the door and decides, ‘Hey, I’d really like to

Artful expression During the spring break mural camp, Maxine, who attends John Rex Elementary, admired the kaleidoscope of colors as Sinnett and fellow artist-teacher Jason Pawley united the two halves of the large-scale painting. The mural will be auctioned off during the First Friday Gallery Walk in the Paseo, with proceeds going to SixTwelve’s programs. “I really like it here,” Maxine said. “I like that you can create anything you’d like and that you have all the colors in the world, like turquoise, black, pink, purple. I really like the colors in the world.” Fellow campers Aubrey Fudge, 10, and Skylar Wright, 8, said they enjoyed the freedom to express themselves that the sessions offered. “They’re not like, ‘Oh, you can’t do that.’ It’s all, ‘Do what you want to do. It’s your work of art,’” Aubrey said. “I like how everybody here is so nice and just welcoming to you,” Skylar added. “The place alone is a piece of art.” For Sinnett, SixTwelve is a pioneering addition to Oklahoma City’s artistic and cultural renaissance. “I think it’s an amazing opportunity for Oklahoma to have something like this here and what they’re doing for the community,” he said.

Oklahoma poet talks inspiration, dream job things. poems th thi ings I often oft oems ms as I gett feedback feedb ften change h poe dbackk or when I feel them out on stage. I edit poems as I learn new ways of talking about things. When writing about difficult topics like gender and sexuality, racism, classism, love, etc. I often discuss on stage why I feel like something I’ve written now feels problematic. What happens most is I realize a poem is in the wrong order, isn’t finished or was finished two stanzas ago.

klahoma poet and educator Lauren Zuniga is a force. The author of several collections, including one on well-respected independent publishing imprint Write Bloody Publishing, Zuniga’s moving commentary on social justice, women’s issues and everyday life has been popularized by buzzworthy sites like www.Upworthy. com and www.MoveOn.org. She is a three-time international slam poetry finalist and the Director of Literary Arts at Oklahoma City’s SixTwelve community space. Q: Did you always write with the intent to perform your work? Lauren Zuniga: Not really. I always say things out loud as I write because I am interested in how things sound and flow. I often write via voice text in my phone while driving. I love to go back and see what Siri thought I said and see if her version was better. I would say 75 percent of the things I write never see a stage. Q: Does the first performance of a piece of your poetry ever change your initial impression of it? Zuniga: Absolutely. I consider poems living

LOOKATOKC.COM

Q: I first became aware of you when Derrick Brown did a reading at what used to be Galileo’s, and then, I think live poetry and literature as an “art” was very much under the radar and maybe sort of fragmented in Oklahoma. Have you seen any growth in that department since then, not just in your own successes, but for the literary scene in general? Zuniga: It’s really exciting to me that in the last few years we have gone from having one or two shows to offer touring poets to now being able to offer a show every night of the week. The old open mic at Galileo has moved down the street to Sauced on Paseo. You can find poetry in Deep Deuce, Plaza District and on Film Row. We have seen a rise in fun things like Short Order Poetry at H&8th and Kerry Shadid’s Poetry Stand. There are so many open mic nights and live literature shows now, I can’t even keep up. I think businesses realize that it gets people in the doors. When someone steps up to a microphone to share a poem for the first time, they often bring all their friends and family for support. It’s a meaningful experience for everyone in the audience. Q: Do people still ask you to explain being a professional poet? Zuniga: Once, I was on a first date, trying to explain what I did for a living, and I decided to just take the three minutes it would take to explain to say a poem instead. Pretty soon, the server and the guy sitting at the next table started sharing their poems, and everyone was gathered around listening. It might have been a little weird for my date — I didn’t get asked out again — but spontaneous poetry readings are something I consider a perk of the job. Q: You’re the director of literary arts at SixTwelve. What do you do there? Zuniga: It is my dream job. I’m so honored to be a part of the incredible team of artists and visionaries at SixTwelve. It is the kind of place I have always dreamed Oklahoma City could have, and thanks to the incredible hard work of Amy Young, James Varnum and the rest of the 612 team, it is finally here. We are just getting started, but I’ve already been able to co-facilitate an after-school workshop with Denise Duong, host an evening of poetry with Andrea Gibson with 100 people in

attendance, will have at a tend te ndance and d we w ililll h ave writer/founder r/fo foun und der of write iter/ Write Bloody Publishing, Derrick Brown on tour with writer/actor Amber Tamblyn on May 16. On March 25, we did a collaborative live performance with Fountainsun, Sun Riah and Goatwater Expressway, which is a great example of the magical things that will take place at SixTwelve. We offer spring, summer and fall camps, workshops, an event space and trade share. In the future, I’d like to start a neighborhood storytelling zine and a live literature series, anything that can engage the community and create a safe space for new writers to cultivate their craft. Q: What’s your philosophy on teaching something as personal as poetry — can everyone do this? Should everyone do it? Zuniga: My philosophy is that no one can tell you what a poem is any more than they can tell you what color your grandmother’s curtains were. Everyone has a poem inside of them. My hope is to give people the permission and tools to retrieve it. Q: Your work is rife with personal experience, with firsthand point of view. As you’ve changed, is there an earlier version of you on paper that you no longer agree with? Do you still perform those poems? Zuniga: Even though I shudder to think of old poems being out in the world, published or on the Internet, I feel grateful that I have archived my life in that way. I can go back and see my progress as a writer, performer and human. I can see moments of my life and my children’s lives that I might not have been able to capture in a photograph. Some of my early feminist-inspired poems (such as “Girl:Exploded”) have elements that I now find problematic, but I think sometimes the most feminist thing I can do is be a single mother and touring artist who honestly speaks about my inner conflict and growth. Q: What’s your first memory of a poem you studied (in school, or on your own) that you identified with? Zuniga: My grandmother had a room called the “living room,” which, for some reason, no one was allowed to go in. When I was a kid, I would sneak in there, sit in the red chair and pull books off the shelf. I remember finding a collection by Anne Sexton and thinking it was something forbidden. It was the first time I realized poetry didn’t have to rhyme, and it could make you feel things with your whole body. — Becky Carman, for LOOKatOKC

SUFJAN STEVENS

How the biggest little album of 2015 was recorded in Norman

ufjan Stevens hasn’t performed in Oklahoma. But that doesn’t mean he wouldn’t record here. The Brooklyn, N.Y.,-based artist, 39, spent roughly two weeks inside Norman-based Blackwatch Studios back in July 2013 and worked alongside audio engineers Chad Copelin and Jarod Evans on a new record. The two are even thanked in the liner notes of “Carrie & Lowell,” Stevens’ latest full-album effort and a return to his folk-tinged, stripped-down roots. Stevens’ folksy album streak took an electronic side step in recent years, but “Carrie & Lowell” is nothing short of a heartbreaking return to form. It was released March 31, and half of the songs on the album were tracked at Blackwatch. In case you’re unfamiliar with Stevens (whose first name is pronounced Soof-yawn), then you should know he fits neatly in that category of musicians you’ve listened to but haven’t realized it yet. At his most popular, you’ve caught his gentle balladry throughout the Oscar-winning film “Little Miss Sunshine” or in Red Bull ads. Or possibly at his most intimate, alone in your room in a set of headphones. That’s how I was introduced to him and his breakthrough 2005 album “Illinois,” which was equal parts beautiful, catchy and fragile. Ste-

vens played more than 20 instruments on that album, including banjo, saxophone, recorder and his friend’s clunky accordion. The new album’s namesake pertains to Stevens’ mother and stepfather. Carrie died a few years ago, which ended a strained, complex relationship with her son. “Carrie & Lowell” is Stevens’ sensitive meditation on her life, death and pretty much every feeling in between.

But he was still focused and quick to capitalize on inspiration. “There was just a lot of work to do, and Sufjan likes to work fast,” Copelin wrote in an email. Copelin, 33, and Evans weren’t producing the album so much as streamlining the recording process. One would record Stevens singing while the other edited the results. Copelin would bounce around ideas about weird keyboard sounds while Evans would fetch the instrument.

AND HE CHOSE TO RECORD IT HERE I sat down with half of Blackwatch at Elemental Coffee on the morning of the “Carrie & Lowell” release to chat about the recording process. Evans, 31, remembered Stevens visited his studio holding a hard drive filled with hundreds of demos. Stevens called them “sketches.” Evans, Copelin and Stevens usually focused on a track daily for “Carrie & Lowell.” “Every song was a quick experiment,” Evans said. “Don’t give it too much thought, regurgitate quick ideas and (act on) impulsive energy. Then at the end day hang it up and walk in tomorrow and know we’re going to start on a fresh idea. That’s a fun way to work with anybody, when you get to be spontaneous.” Better-known artists usually aren’t interested in venturing far beyond the studio, Evans said. Too much hassle. But not Stevens. He enjoyed visiting The Earth Cafe & Deli and didn’t mind when he was recognized.

NO PRESSURE Stevens met the Blackwatch audio engineers on a 2013 project in Los Angeles and swapped information with the duo. Neither thought they’d hear from Stevens so quickly, or at all. But after Stevens reached out, Blackwatch was ready and only slightly on edge for a famous artist. The Flaming Lips, Charlie Hall and Kelly Clarkson are a few of the studio’s notable clients. “I would say the hardest part is the hour before they get there,” Copelin said. “Should we light candles? A fresh Swiff? Should we put coffee on or go somewhere close that’s cool?” But once the artist arrives and you get in a rhythm, then it’s business as usual, Copelin said. Copelin noted Stevens was different than most artists he has worked with because he has mastered so

many instruments and can play most of the parts on his own album. At the same time though, Stevens was inclusive and asked for Blackwatch’s opinion. “We thought it was funny,” Copelin said, “because it was like, ‘Well, we love what you do. So, what do you think?’ ” As I finished coffee with Evans on Tuesday, he said he had to double check which songs they produced actually made it onto “Carrie & Lowell,” because he couldn’t remember them off the top of his head. He clearly wasn’t too caught up in the project. “I’m of the mindset that you just gotta keep going forward,” Evans said. “Any good thing ... that you’ve done should only be perceived as a step forward, and the moment you start to reflect and be proud of your accomplishment, to me, is a deterrent of progress.” Evans has interest in what he can do to improve his craft and get where he wants to be as an audio engineer. “Every day is a step in that direction, hopefully,” he said. Good news Blackwatch, “Carrie & Lowell” is quite the leap. — Nathan Poppe, LOOKatOKC editor

‘IT FOLLOWS’

movie review

MOVIE REVIEW ‘IT FOLLOWS’ R 1:37 ★★★ 1⁄2 Starring: Maika Monroe, Keir Gilchrist, Daniel Zovatto, Jake Weary and Olivia Luccardi. (Disturbing violent and sexual content including graphic nudity and language)

The walking dread, indie horror flick offers big scares

ovies don’t get a lot scarier than “It Follows.” Patient, smart and (best of all) well-executed, the chilling tale invents a serious set of rules that its players don’t get the luxury of ignoring. The film’s nomadic monster slowly stalks its victims, taking whatever human form it wants along the way. Friends, loved ones or even dead-eyed naked people. You’ll regret letting it touch you, and few stay alive if it does. The only way to ditch the monster is to “pass” the curse through sexual contact. If you think this is the making of the weirdest STD public service announcement, then you’re not alone. Jay Height (Maika Monroe, remarkably good here) gets stuck with the curse after a horrid date, learns the monster’s rules the hard way and literally gets “dumped” on the street after the horrific encounter. She also learns that if she dies, then the monster starts working backward on its deadly to-do list, offing unlucky souls that share the same fate. Monroe’s character is easily one of the most likable, doomed females in recent film history. Her performance drives this flick and is more than just a “why me” damsel-in-distress outing. She’s mostly smart, willing to fight, and it makes for a remarkably haunted performance.

What elevates this film most is how effectively it creates its own nervous, believable world and defies horror convention. “It Follows” evokes more scares with a knock at the door than the majority of films that use buckets of blood and gore to get a scare. The harder Height and her reliable friends fight back with classic horror tactics, the more devastating the monster’s reaction. The pace can drag at times, and the supporting roles are thin, but the film’s high notes and menacing, often spinning cinematography overwhelm most minor quibbles. The mood in “It Follows” is sinister, and there’s nothing anyone can do to change it. Most horrifying of all is how alone Height seems even when her friends are right next to her. That’s good filmmaking. And don’t let me forget the soundtrack — half Super Nintendo and half late-’70s horror playlist curated by “Halloween’s” John Carpenter. It sweetens the scares so masterfully that you’ll want to cover your eyes well before you cover your ears. It’s not to be missed. If you have a hard time believing your actions don’t have consequences or if you spook easily, then avoid “It Follows” like Taco Bell when you’re on a diet. But if you’re hungry for scares that’ll swim around your skull far past the end credits, then you’re in for a feast. — Nathan Poppe, LOOKatOKC editor

pring has sprung, and all that goes with it: Mother’s Day, NBA playoffs, baseball season, morel mushrooms and the early bounty of local gardens — all with the same 24-hour limit to each day. Better wing it. Chicken wings found their glass slipper at a humble tavern in Buffalo, N.Y., about 50 years ago. The marriage of butter and hot sauce at the altar of chicken, showered lightly with celery salt on its way out of the chapel of fire, has given birth to many variations, with influences from every conceivable cuisine. The chicken wing, like skirt steak, was once considered waste byproduct with little use beyond the weekly stock. Today it’s the anchor of national restaurant chains and many a tailgate or watch party. Chicken wings offer two of my favorite distinctions in recipe-writing: simplicity and versatility. All you have to do is cook wings to crispness and slather them in a bold sauce that adheres easily. Frying is the traditional way. A light dusting of flour, 375-degree fat and about 10 minutes is all it takes to get wings within a whisker of serving. Just remember this simple equation: Butter + Hot Sauce = High Rate of Deliciosity. When considering how to devise your own wing recipe, never let that equation wander far from thought. But let’s break it down even more. In culinary circles, the basic premise is to use a balance of fat, salt and acid to best bring forward flavors from a protein, vegetable or starch. If you can derive some crunch, that’s the cherry on top. Butter is that fat; acid comes from a vinegar-based hot sauce; salt comes naturally from the chicken fat and from whatever salt you add at the end. Crisp chicken skin is one of life’s simplest and most rewarding pleasures. That means butter doesn’t have to be the fat, although it’s the most dependable one. The acid can come from somewhere other

MEAN GREEN WINGS 2 pounds chicken wings, separated at joints, tips discarded 1 teaspoon ground coriander 2 tablespoons green hot sauce (I like Picamas, which you can ﬁnd at Feria Latina in Bethany) 2 tablespoons unsalted butter 1/2 tablespoon ﬁsh sauce (I like Red Boat, which is sold at Super Cao Nguyen Market) 2 teaspoons Thai green curry paste Salt and pepper Cooking oil

Prepare a grill or smoking for cooking over direct-heat. In a large mixing bowl, combine the oil and wings, making sure the chicken is lightly coated. Salt and pepper to taste and mix once more. In a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat, then add garlic, hot sauce, curry paste, coriander fish sauce and a dash of salt and pepper. Stir occasionally and keep warm while wings cook. Place the wings on the grill, watching for flareups. If possible, keep the fire at least six inches from the grates. Flip the wings every two or three minutes until they are crisp on each side. Cover and let roast 7 to 10 minutes. If you can, gather the coals on one side of the fire box and toss some pecan or oak wood into it. If you have a heat shield, use it and smoke the wings about 20 minutes at 200 degrees. Once wings are cooked through, toss them in a large mixing bowl with the sauce. Serve with Cilantro Coconut Dressing.

CILANTRO-COCONUT DRESSING 1 14-ounce can coconut milk 1/2 bunch cilantro, stems discarded 1 1-inch-by-1-inch cube peeled ginger, chopped roughly Juice of 1/4 lime Combine all ingredients in a blender and pulse until smooth.

than a hot sauce, i.e., fresh citrus juice, vinegar or even wine. Degree of salt remains a matter of personal preference. Today, I decided to share three recipes: a straightforward classic Buffalo wing and two versions drawing inspiration from Asian cuisine. For the Buffalo wing, it’s butter, Frank’s Hot Sauce (though any cayenne-vinegar concoction will work), garlic and celery salt. While blue cheese dressing, celery and carrot sticks are traditionally served with Buffalo wings, accoutrements won’t make or break any of these wings. With hot wings, yes, it’s a good idea to offer some respite from the blaze. Creamy dressings are a natural way to combat the burn. In Oklahoma, we usually reach for ranch, and I’m not going to tell you can’t do that in any of these cases, but I can’t vouch for its fitness. But I like celery sticks dipped in blue cheese whether I have wings to go with them or not. For perspiration-inducing inspiration from another part of the globe, I looked to Thai cuisine. Green curry is the de facto champ of high heat in Thai food. A high-octane chili paste is typically cut with coconut milk to make it palatable without a fire extinguisher. So, I decided to mix green curry paste with ground coriander, fish sauce (I like Red Boat from Super Cao Nguyen Market), a bit of green hot sauce from Guatemala called Picamas (available at Feria Latina in Bethany) for color and texture, served with a dipping sauce made of coconut milk, lime juice, cilantro and ginger. Temptation was strong to do a Sriracha wing, but Alton Brown’s going to be in town next week, So, in deference to his distaste for it, I challenged myself to come up with an alternative. Enter chili-garlic sauce, which is a variation on sambal oelek. I also wanted this wing to be versatile enough to serve with rice as a main dish, so I added some sugar to the sauce for balance and to negate the need for dipping sauce. While frying is the typical way to cook wings, they can also be brushed with oil and oven-roasted. But I prefer cooking wings over a hot fire before finishing them with a little smoke. The proper application of smoke adds one extra layer of flavor to the result, and I’ve yet to hear complaints. I’m confident any or all of these wing variations will help you through the busy months ahead.

BLUE CHEESE DRESSING

GRILLED, SMOKED BUFFALO WINGS

1/2 cup mayonnaise 1/2 cup sour cream 4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled 2 tablespoons minced onions or chives 1 tablespoon fresh lemon or lime juice or citrus-infused balsamic vinegar 1/4 cup buttermilk or whole milk 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder 1 teaspoon kosher salt 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper, optional Salt and pepper to taste

2 pounds chicken wings, separated at joints, tips discarded 1/2 stick unsalted butter 1 small clove garlic, mashed into paste with 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 cup hot pepper sauce, like Frank’s 3 tablespoons cooking oil Celery salt Celery sticks Carrot sticks Salt and pepper Blue cheese dressing

Combine all ingredients and refrigerate at least 30 minutes before serving. If you like a looser dressing, add a tablespoon of buttermilk (or milk) and stir.

Prepare a grill or smoking for cooking over direct heat. In a large mixing bowl, combine the oil and wings, making sure the chicken is lightly coated. Salt and pepper to taste and mix once more. In a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat, then add garlic, hot sauce and a dash of salt and pepper. Stir occasionally and keep warm while wings cook. Place the wings on the grill, watching for flareups. If possible, keep the fire at least six inches from the grates. Flip the wings every two or three minutes until they are crisp on each side. Cover and let roast 7 to 10 minutes. If you can, gather the coals on one side of the fire box and toss some pecan or oak wood into it. If you have a heat shield, use it and smoke the wings about 20 minutes at 200 degrees. Once wings are cooked through, toss them in a large mixing bowl with the sauce. Sprinkle with celery salt. Serve with blue cheese, celery and carrot sticks.

“T

his is a record about home. Whatever that is.

“

The dedication in the liner notes of Tulsa songwriter John Moreland’s new album is a ﬁtting introduction. “High on Tulsa Heat” was mostly recorded on a whim in a few days in July 2014 at Moreland’s parents’ Bixby home, while they were on vacation. Produced by Moreland, with engineering and instrumental assistance from fellow Tulsans John Calvin Abney and Jared Tyler, the record is ﬁlled with pop rock, Pettyesque gems cut with plaintive ballads, ruminations on being lovesick, loneliness and, above all, the idea of home. The concept of home is something he’s explored before, a bit more subtly. A line in “Your Spell,” from 2013’s “In the Throes,” lilts, “We knew emptiness like a panhandle road.” And then there’s the title track from

JOHN MORELAND

2008’s “Endless Oklahoma Sky,” a line repeated on “Tulsa Heat’s” “Cleveland County Blues.” But the very idea of home is tricky when, by choice and by trade, Moreland — whose knuckle tattoos read “OKLA” and “HOMA” — has spent much of the past several years on the road, making travel as much his home as anywhere else. “It gets weird after a while. You can’t do that forever, and I need some balance,” Moreland said. “But I’ve been off for a while, and even just driving to SXSW (in Austin, in March) felt really good. Just getting out of town and driving down the highway, listening to ‘Exile on Main Street.’ That’s kinda my s---.”

Choice words Upon the release of “High on Tulsa Heat” April 21, Moreland will once again pack up for sometimes-greener pastures, with tour dates booked nationwide through the summer. And when he does, crowds can expect the same gravity, the same pin-drop silence that has marked many of Moreland’s recent performances. “I think I want the words to be the focus,” Moreland said. “I don’t think I’m a very good guitar player; I can’t do anything ﬂashy to grab people’s attention. I would rather the words do that.” Moreland isn’t a traditional frontman and doesn’t seem terribly interested in putting on a show. Instead, he’s a heartbreaker of a different color, possessed of the gift of articulation — whittling the weight of despair, lost love or homesickness into a few choice words. “I write a ton and then ﬁgure out what doesn’t need to be there,” Moreland said. “I just take stuff out until I feel like it’s simple enough.” The resulting sadness is pointed, palpable — and the assumption is often that all the sadness is his, and that the sadness is all he is. With lines like “I guess I got a taste for poison / I’ve given up on ever being well” from “Tulsa Heat” track “Cherokee,” it’s easy to see why his songs, as Moreland would say, bum people out. But, as he’ll tell you himself, he’s not really that sad. “Somebody started a ‘Cheer Up John Moreland’ Instagram account,” Moreland said. “And I think it’s funny, but it’s also like ... man, I’m not really that sad. I don’t know what you think I’m like. That happens a lot.”

His friends know this about him, and many of their additions to the record — namely Abney’s late-night synthesizer riffs on “High on Tulsa Heat,” and Kierston White’s whiskey-laden background vocals on “Heart’s Too Heavy” — lift the record’s spirits in unexpected ways.

Hitting his stride In tandem with this misapprehension about him being a bummer, Moreland agrees that in “real life,” he’s generally a private person. He also recognizes that this makes his career, his art, seem a bit counterintuitive. “Being a songwriter is weird. You have to be introspective and maybe even self-loathing enough to write the songs, but then you have to be audacious enough to think that the songs you wrote are worth people’s attention,” Moreland said. “And people have asked me if it’s weird to sing this stuff in front of people, but it doesn’t feel weird. This is only context where I could say this stuff.” He’s made a lifelong commitment to the outlet, though, with his earlier Tulsa bands rooted in hard-core and punk rock because of the same lyrical honesty. Moreland said, when I interviewed him in 2009 with his Black Gold Band, that he got into punk rock because of the “straight-ahead, good songs with no gimmicks,” where the words mean something. Despite his earlier stabs at this style of song, it wasn’t until 2011’s “Earthbound Blues” that he feels he hit his stride. “When I was writing for ‘Earthbound Blues,’ there was a moment where I knew I actively wanted to get better, and I was writing with that in mind,” Moreland said. “Everything I wrote before that, there’s a lot that makes me cringe, but nothing really since then. I’ve kept in mind that I want to be able to be proud of these songs down the road.”

Buying in What lies ahead is the release of “High on Tulsa Heat,” where Moreland for the first time finds himself with a marketing team (Nashville’s acclaimed Thirty Tigers) and a booking agent, the latter a luxury he’s only enjoyed for a few weeks. In that same 2009 interview, Moreland discussed the difficulty of booking after crossing over from punk rock into Americana — that,

at first, people weren’t ready to buy in, forcing him to work all the harder to find his market with later records. Having a team behind him, despite his success so far, is relatively new to Moreland, and while he’s learning to hand control over to people who are working in his interests, he hasn’t lost sight of the work he’s put in so far. “I’m thankful that I came from this musical background where you learn

how to do stuff with extremely limited resources. You do everything yourself that you possibly can. You don’t wait for a break; you just do it,” Moreland said. “I wouldn’t have a career if I hadn’t known how to do that. There was nobody on my team making calls or pulling strings for me for a really long time.” Moreland wasn’t waiting for a break, but it appears that break may have

finally come anyway, and the road ahead looks promising. And in the near future, he’ll be on that road constantly, likely earning plenty of fodder for future songs. As he sings on “Hang Me in the Tulsa County Stars”: “I know this life will leave you cold and drive you mad / make you homesick for a home you never had.”

LOOKATOKC.COM

But after all the exploration, the heartache, the leaving and returning, Moreland seems poised to forever hang his hat in Tulsa. “I think if you’re going to make a living going to strange and unfamiliar places,” Moreland said, “then it’s probably good to come back to the most familiar place on Earth. Tulsa’s just home.”

‘NANI’

city news

Oklahoma City dinner club disputes state Health Department order to close

n a bustling kitchen at the edge of the Plaza District in Oklahoma City, four men in aprons prepare an 18-course meal. They delicately slice quail eggs and fresh-baked pan bread, and lay eggplant and raw fish together in a small bowl, placing small bits of juniper on top with delicate precision. Two rooms away, on a handmade wooden and metal table, one of them lays smooth wooden chop sticks on small pieces of reclaimed granite. Although the group operates in a seemingly professional environment and their patrons sit among visually comforting surroundings, sitting underneath rustic branches that act as curtain rods and framed shots of stunning aerial photographs, this is not a restaurant in the traditional sense. It is a dinner club called Nani, and it operates out of the bottom floor of the very home of some of its staff. In February, the state Health Department issued Nani a cease and desist order, stating its owners

LOOKATOKC.COM

were operating without a license as a food establishment. The case is ongoing, pending an appeal hearing. Colin Stringer and Andon Whitehorn, Nani’s owners and two of its three chefs, argue they are not a restaurant at all, rather a private dinner club, and have been operating as such since last summer. “It’s not like going out to dinner,” Stringer said. “It’s an event.” “It’s a very curated experience, and it’s a very personal endeavor,” he said. Nani does not take orders, nor does it advertise or accept walk-in customers. The meals are chosen by the chefs preparing them, and guests who make reservations are expected to try new foods, some locally foraged, and learn about both what foods they are eating and the process by which they are made. The state Health Department has attempted to inspect Nani’s facilities twice. Both times they were denied by its proprietors. The agency argues Nani is a restaurant and should be licensed as such. However, Stringer and Whitehorn, who are licensed as food managers with the state Health Department,

say they are operating as private chefs, a stipulation made in the emails they send confirming reservations, and are inviting people to their home to try something new they chose to make. Essentially, they say, we’re throwing a little party every night. “It is a gray area the same way a lot of other really popular models are gray areas right now,” Stringer said. “You have things like Uber, Airbnb. People question their legality, but what they’re doing is cutting out the middle man. They’re cutting out the traditional taxing service. It’s empowering the workers. You’re basically letting the people do business amongst themselves.” For now, Stringer and Whitehorn say until a legal outcome is reached, Nani will continue to take reservations. Tony Sellars, spokesman for the state Health Department, admits there are no laws in Oklahoma regulating private chefs, but he said what Nani is doing simply is not legal. “There must be a complete separation between the food service activities and the residential activities,” he said. “You could live in the back of whatever it is, but there has to be a clear separation where there’s not people coming in and out, sitting on the couch watching TV or whatever.” If they continue operating past the 15-day period allowed for an appeal after the cease and desist order was filed, Stringer and Whitehorn face a $250 per day fine. “It’s nothing but money at this point. They’ve realized that they don’t have regulations for this,” Whitehorn said. “Bottom line, I think they’re just trying to fill their fee schedule. And, that’s exactly what it is.” The two said they want to be in compliance with the law, but after repeated attempts to get clarification from the state Health Department on either how they differ from private chefs or what options exist for them to continue operating, they have been met with a wall of silence. The state Health Department declined to comment on the specifics of Nani’s case, citing pending litigation. “They’ve never been given any guidance as to how to comply with (the law),” said Rebecca J. King, an attorney representing Nani. Nani’s business model does not fall under the legal requirements for operating a restaurant, King said, and the case is unprecedented in Oklahoma. As new and unique businesses grow along with the state’s changing culture and business, new problems will need to be addressed. “Oklahoma is going through some growing pains, and it’s exciting to see these new things,” she said. “But, there is some old administrative code that doesn’t really match with business models today.” — Graham Lee Brewer, for LOOKatOKC

‘GOLD DOME’

Gold Dome expected to sell to The Rise developer

Gold Dome building in Oklahoma City. Photo by Nathan Poppe, for LOOKatOKC

he Gold Dome is set to sell this month to Johnathan Russell, who is preparing to tackle redevelopment of the landmark after successfully completing the conversion of a blighted nearby block into The Rise shopping center. The Gold Dome, which has survived a series of ups and downs over the past dozen years, was to be redeveloped into the corporate headquarters for Edmond-based TEEMCO, an environmental consulting firm. Renovations, however, stalled last year as the company encountered financial difficulties and a disagreement between TEEMCO’s CEO, Greg Lorson, and its former Chief Financial Officer Michael S. Dixon. On March 10, the deal fell apart, and Oklahoma City developer David Box, who bought the building during a foreclosure auction, began entertaining purchase offers. Russell is being cautious about promising what’s next for the Gold Dome, at least not until after the sale closes. But he is promising he is firmly opposed to any effort to raze the building, as was threatened twice in recent years. When the Gold Dome was built by Citizens Bank in 1958, the two-story building was “the bank of tomorrow.” The building’s geodesic design was inspired by inventor, architect and engineer Buck-

minster Fuller. “It is a complicated building,” Russell said. “If we slow down and consider the community’s interest, what’s best for the building, and what is financially viable, we’ll come up with the best resolution. There is a solution — if there wasn’t, I wouldn’t be involved.” Tommy Garrison, property manager with Box Talent, said the contract was signed as Lorson attempted to revive his deal to redevelop the property. Garrison and Box, however, say that deal is dead and they’re moving forward. TEEMCO, which did not have a major presence in the city prior to buying the Gold Dome in 2013, engaged in an extensive publicity campaign at the time that included sponsorship deals with the Thunder, various media and community events. Lorson told reporters the company’s plans included a display of the world’s largest salt crystal lamp in the Gold Dome lobby. Lorson said TEEMCO had the salt crystal mined in the Himalayas, and shipped from Pakistan to New York City and then to Oklahoma City, where it now sits in one of TEEMCO’s warehouses. TEEMCO also told reporters it purchased the building from Box, but when work halted, both sides acknowledged they had a lease purchase that was yet to be completed. Renovations came to a halt a year ago as the company faced lawsuits claiming it failed to pay $77,500 in sponsorship fees for KWTV-9’s Skycam

Network and also was being threatened with eviction lawsuits for unpaid rent. Garrison, however, said the company did complete some renovations to the building, which had suffered a lack of upkeep during the final months it was owned by Irene Lam, whose own rescue attempt of the building ended in foreclosure. “The roof was obviously worked on, it was sealed and repainted,” Garrison said. “You can see the color difference. They put a new sign on the corner. They did some electrical fixes, they put phone and Internet hook ups in there, and in the end, they were just looking to get into there.” Russell, unlike previous owners, is not claiming fixes will come easy to the dome, which was designed for a bank and used as one until the late 1990s. But Russell also believes the resurgence of Uptown NW 23 during the past two years makes a long-lasting revitalization of the landmark far more viable. “It’s always had potential,” Russell said. “But so much about the business I’m in is about timing. Northwest 23rd is at a peak right now, and it’s moving upward and forward. If the Gold Dome is going to be successful, it has as good a chance now as ever before in recent history.” — Steve Lackmeyer, for LOOKatOKC

Oklahoma City 'Haunted House' restaurant goes up for auction

ucked inside the register, Marian Thibault keeps a handwritten list of the famous people who have dined at The Haunted House restaurant over the 51 years that she has run the place. “Bob Hope, Liberace, Hoss from ‘Bonanza,’ Sarah Ferguson, Lauren Bacall,” Thibault reads in a German-accented deadpan from the list, scribbled in faded ballpoint pen. “And the Bee Gees, whoever they are. ... Foreigner, I guess that’s a rock and roll band or something.” At 89 years old, Thibault’s health is failing, and she’s ready to leave her perch not far from the bar, but she would like to see the restaurant continue to serve customers. Thibault hopes to sell The Haunted House to a new proprietor at an auction April 16 at Dakil Auctioneers Inc., 200 NW 114. More information about the auction is available at www.Dakil.com. “I hope to sell it to someone who loves the restaurant business,” Thibault said. “This place has been my life for more than 50 years.” Thibault and her late husband, Arthur Thibault, opened The Haunted House restaurant in 1964, which then sat not far off the old Route 66 highway. There were no credit cards when the restaurant debuted, and for decades, the Thibaults mailed bills to many patrons.

LOOKATOKC.COM

“It was a restaurant that really catered to the legislators at the Capitol,” said Thibault’s son, Pete Holcomb. “It was all charge accounts and they would just send out statements to people every month.” Pete and his sister, Karen Holcomb, began working in the back of the restaurant when they were still children and still help their mother run the place. “I remember all of the people who would come and it was like they were visiting our house,” Karen Holcomb said. “It was a fun place, and work should be fun.” The Thibaults almost never advertised the restaurant, relying mostly on word of mouth and repeat customers for their business, Pete Holcomb said. “It’s one of the best unknown landmarks in Oklahoma City — if you ask 10 people, most have never heard of it,” he said. The Haunted House sits at the end of a narrow road on 2.45 acres of wooded land near NE 63 and N Eastern. Tacked to a tree on a sharp curve in the road, a piece of metal no bigger than an envelope is the only directional signage. The gabled, flagstone restaurant, built in 1935 by automobile dealer Martin Carriker, featured flashy amenities for its time that included a wet bar in the basement, a gas fireplace and a three-car garage. In 1963, the 74-year-old Carriker allegedly was shot in the head by his stepdaughter and two handymen. Before his stepdaughter was tried for the murder, her mother

died and then she, after her acquittal, died of an apparent drug overdose. The restaurant has always celebrated its spooky atmosphere. A stack of pamphlets at the register tells the story of the Carriker deaths. And yet Thibault does not believe in ghosts. “If there are spirits here, they are happy because there’s a big bar,” Thibault said. — Brianna Bailey, for LOOKatOKC

Who doesn’t long for the romance and style of hats — when Humphrey Bogart made a statement with just the right tilt of his fedora or when Jackie Kennedy made the pillbox hat a must in every woman’s wardrobe? Marla Cook, owner of Ladies & Gentlemen Fine Millinery Shop in the Paseo Arts District says why be wistful about days gone by? If you like hats, wear one. Originally from Guthrie, Cook spent her early years in France and New York where she found her true calling working for a milliner in SoHo. “I fell in love with hats,” she said. “They can bring you a lot of joy. You can change your personality. Every hat has a different personality.” Cook opened her shop in October 2013 when she and her husband relocated to Oklahoma City

to start a family. “We decided we wanted to be part of the renaissance in Oklahoma City. Our favorite people are from Oklahoma,” she said. “In Oklahoma, you really can make an impact. I’m the only hat shop in Oklahoma City. That was one of the biggest draws of moving back.” How are Oklahomans embracing couture headwear? Cook has a steady clientele, but still ﬁnds Oklahoma’s conservative fashion climate to be a bit reticent. “Some say they don’t have the conﬁdence,” she said. “But once you start wearing hats, you want a lot of them. I try to encourage people to start small, then develop your style. Have some fun. You’re only here once. It’s just a hat.”
