Although Chris Bell sometimes plays a guitar the size of a newborn baby, his desire for bigger things is still evident.
Bell and guitarist Sam Naifeh are in the Stillwater-native band Flatland Travelers. The duo took a break before touring last week to brave the icy streets of Stillwater to play a couple acoustic songs for “on.”
The country jam band will switch to electric this evening because they will be joined by bandmates Ryan Linden and Dylan Cahwee to compete at Eskimo Joes in the Wakarusa Winter Classic. Several local bands will play starting at 10 p.m. in hopes of winning one time slot in the Wakarusa music festival this June in Arkansas.
Voting will take place Monday at the show.
Naifeh said playing Wakarusa opens a lot of doors for newer bands after gracing a stage at the festival.
