After their successful debut album "Solarray" (2019) and struck by the global pandemic,THE OKLAHOMA KIDset their focus on writing new music, with one simple goal in mind, to best themselves and give every fan something to crave for - "Tangerine Tragic".
"Tangerine Tragic" is built on the strengths of their debut"Solarray". It plays with new ideas and concepts, comes gentle as a breeze and strikes hard as a wrecking ball. The albumwas recorded and produced byJan Kerscher(Ghost City Recordings) - mixed and mastered byLance Prenc(Alpha Wolf,Polaris,Dealer) that gives this production its full blown punch.
"We are always trying to get different influences into our music, that's why we were looking for aproducer outside our genre, to get some new input. When we first met up with Jan, we know he was a perfect match to record and produce our next album."-Andreas Reinhard(guitar)
