Austin's The Bright Light Social Hour headlines this year's OKC Pride Concert
You’re here, you’re queer (or an ally) and you’re looking for good music. Look no further than OKC Pride’s Friday concert headlined by psychedelic rock act The Bright Light Social Hour.
“I think it’s amazing that OKC has such a lively pride festival,” Bright Light bassist/vocalist Jack O’Brien told Oklahoma Gazette. “We were totally honored to be a part of it and do what we can to help spread the message of love and that love will always prevail.”
The band is excited to bring its eclectic style to OKC Pride Week, but this performance almost didn’t happen.
Guitarist/vocalist Curtis Roush was going to be out of town, and the concert is on O’Brien’s birthday, so he already had plans.

I'm giving them a plug since Jack and Curtis are fellow alums from Southwestern University. They are dedicated Democrats who wrote the song "Wendy Davis" and performed it at the Capitol. The band also swept the 2011 Austin Music Awards during SXSW. With any luck the band will even be wearing their Dallas Cowboy cheerleader outfits. Jack is on the left side and Curtis is on the right side of the photo at the link.
