PRYOR, Okla. -- The Red Dirt Rangers took the stage at Country Fever on Saturday with several announcements. One, they're working on a collection of Porter Wagoner hits with Tulsa Sound and Red Dirt scene stalwart Steve Ripley.
And, the band's writing new songs, too.
The group, celebrating 20 years together this year, fired off an energetic set with full band: Don Morris on bass, Jim Karstein on drums, Randy Crouch on fiddle and pedal steel guitar, Ben Han on lead guitar and vocals, Brad Piccolo on guitar and vocals, and John Cooper on mandolin and vocals.
The boys paid tribute to Red Dirt scene founder Bob Childers, who died last year from complications of lung disease. They performed his tune, "Good Morning Mary Ann," a bouncy, down-tempo love song.
They also played a new tune and homage to their stomping grounds out near Pawnee, "Living on Lone Chimney Time," along with favorites "Rainbow Rocker" and "Under the Radar."
