It’s time to take things to Oklahoma and the dance arena. This month, we welcome the vibrancy and smoothness of the old-time round dance songs from the southern plains with the album “Songs of Our Old People.” These songs are known for their distinct vocal patterns and beat. We invite you to learn more about the origins of the Oklahoma round dance style as we visit with one of the voices behind this album, Kenneth Cozad of the Kiowa and Comanche Nations, our June Music Makers on Native America Calling.
