Welcome to Tulsa Picks, your weekly compilation of Tulsa's best food, arts and music events, as picked by us, the staff of The Pickup. Let's get to it!

Pick Of The Week

HONEYTRAP
July 5, 6:30pm and 9pm
LowDown, 108 N. Detroit Ave.

Fiawna Forté and Annie Ellicott have been incredible forces in Tulsa music for a long time. With HONEYTRAP they merge their talents alongside some of the most adventurous musicians in the city: Phillip Hanewinkel, David Broome, Peter Tomshany, and Mark Southerland. A strong antidote to the sis-boom-bah of the holiday weekend. —Alicia Chesser
