Artists & Bands
Three live sets close out United for Warriors with local music, veteran-community connections, and a nationally experienced country headliner.
David Oakleaf & The Open Road
Country • Singer-Songwriter
From a small town in south-central Kansas to Nashville and stages across the country, David Oakleaf has built a career around songwriting, touring, and live performance. He picked up his first guitar at age 11, began entertaining at his local opry house, and continued writing and performing through high school and college before making his way to Nashville.
Oakleaf spent 15 years in Music City, where David Oakleaf & The Open Road became regular performers at the world-famous Wildhorse Saloon and toured across the country. Along the way, he released five albums of original music, with songs and performances featured on television and radio nationwide.
His career has included sharing the stage with artists such as Big & Rich, Brad Paisley, Jason Aldean, Dierks Bentley, Randy Houser, Pat Green, and Jamey Johnson. After years on the road and in Nashville, Oakleaf and his family now call Tulsa home, where he continues writing, playing, and sharing his music.
David Oakleaf & The Open Road will close the United for Warriors concert with the evening headlining set.
Broke Teachers
Three Teachers. Three Guitars. A Whole Lot of Music.
Matt Caldwell, James Quinn, and Michelle Quinn come together as Broke Teachers, an acoustic-driven trio built around three guitars, good songs, and the simple fun of making music together.
The group brings a relaxed, song-first live performance to the United for Warriors stage and will open the evening concert at BlackGold Park.
Members: Matt Caldwell • James Quinn • Michelle Quinn
Glenpool Guitars for Vets Band
Veterans. Instructors. Friends. Music.
The Glenpool Guitars for Vets Band brings together veterans, Guitars for Vets instructors, civilian musicians, and friends of the program who share a love of making music together.
The band grew out of the local Guitars for Vets community, where veterans learn, play, and build connections through music. Some members are program graduates, some are instructors, and others are musicians who support the mission and enjoy performing alongside the veterans they have come to know.
On stage, the focus is simple: good music, camaraderie, and bringing people together.
Three sets. One night supporting veterans.
Broke Teachers opens at 6:00 PM, the Glenpool Guitars for Vets Band follows at 7:00 PM, and David Oakleaf & The Open Road takes the stage at 8:00 PM.
