Keeping in line with the southern rock theme we currently have going on this week – PEV brings you Oakley (a bit different from the sunglasses I used to rock, but a name memorable nonetheless). Oakley has been doing his thing for a while, self-producing records in an ongoing love affair with music – specifically country, southern rock, and what he calls “kick’n country”.

Orba Squara’s “The Trouble with Flying” is a bit more than just a latest release – it’s a chunk of his life. Sure, it’s a collection in which you’ll hear over a dozen cleverly crafted tunes, but Squara took it another step. He turned his trip across the U.S. that influenced much of the work on the record into an online web documentary – and a damn good one.
