The Story Behind the Riffs

Stage Fright band members

In the heart of Oklahoma City, OK, a spontaneous gathering of four dreamers turned into something extraordinary. It began in a cramped garage, fueled by a collective love of rock music and a desire to create. Kenzie’s voice soared above the chaos, Jonah’s riffs caught fire, Sage brought the rhythm, and Eli’s deep bass anchored it all.

We are deeply rooted in our Oklahoma heritage—each song reflects the grit and spirit of our home state. But we are not just a band; we are a movement. With every show and every song, we invite our fans to join us in a rebellion against the ordinary. Together, let’s make rock loud, real, and unforgettable.
