JD McPherson — Signs & Signifiers
All 'Signs' point to excellence.
Rock
Matt Carney
If anybody in Oklahoma is most likely to capitalize on wide-audience distribution right now, it must be Broken Arrow’s R&B-flavored rocker JD McPherson, whose debut album, Signs & Signifiers, was re-released last week by Rounder Records.
B real
A decade together, work with high-profile artists, a widespread fan base — for one local R&B group, it’s all Meant2B.
Music
Ryan Querbach
A local R&B group’s members all hail from different states, but they just so happened to come together as students of the University of Central Oklahoma; that’s why they call themselves Meant2B.
All is ’bright
