Carter Sampson at The Hen & Chicken
Headfirst Editor's Pick

"Bona fide Americana gold! Oklahoma City’s Carter Sampson brings heartfelt heartland country blues to the Hen & Chicken, pouring warm roots twang and wailing pedal steel over her hymns to rodeo queens, rattlesnakes, and the hardscrabble Dust Bowl days. This is the real deal FFO: Lucinda Williams, Gillian Welch, Margo Price."
