Summary
Country singer Jason Eady, known for his traditional honky-tonk and acoustic country sound, has released a new album 'Tulsa Turnaround' that departs from his usual style. The 11-track record is a tribute to the Tulsa Sound — a folk, blues, and rock fusion scene that emerged in Oklahoma in the 1960s, pioneered by artists like J.J. Cale and Leon Russell, and later embraced by Eric Clapton.
