Sand Springs Musician Spotlight – In celebration of April National Guitar Month –

 

Classical, acoustic-electrical, bass, fender, you probably recognize these names – they are guitars of all types and styles. Something we bet you didn’t know is that April is National Guitar Month! So we are here to celebrate our local musicians and inspire you to dive deeper into the world of music!

Right here in Sand Springs we have a family of musicians who are lighting the musical flames of so many – Firey Music.
