 Tulsa’s Jake Karlik Band Announces Self‑Titled Debut and First Single “The Mountain” release date: October 23, 2026 Tulsa’s Jake Karlik Band will release their self‑titled debut album on October 23, 2026 via Horton Records, introducing an eight‑song blend of blues, rock, Americana, funk and the city’s signature Tulsa Sound. The record captures the feel of five musicians playing together in real time a live‑in‑the‑room approach that shapes both the performances and the songwriting. The first single, “The Mountain,” is available now. Built around themes of sacrifice, longing and the emotional weight people carry, the song follows two characters separated by duty and distance. Its slow‑burn storytelling and atmospheric groove offer a clear window into the band’s mix of Americana narrative and Southern‑leaning musicianship. The group — Jake Karlik (vocals, guitar), Ian McGuire (guitar), Paul Latta (drums, vocals), Sky Slater (bass) and Greg Zink (keys) — approached the album as a true collaboration. All five members contributed to the writing and arrangements, giving the record a collective identity rooted in chemistry rather than studio perfectionism. Recorded at Closet Studios in Tulsa with Kendal Osborne engineering and mixing, and Mat Leffler‑Schulman mastering, the album favors raw interaction over heavy polish. The band’s influences Gov’t Mule, The Allman Brothers Band, Joe Cocker, Lynyrd Skynyrd are present, but serve more as a foundation than a blueprint. The songs explore perseverance, love, loss, pride and redemption, leaving space for the musicians to stretch out when the moment calls for it. With “The Mountain” setting the tone, Jake Karlik Band’s debut introduces a group grounded in storytelling, groove and the unmistakably human sound of musicians creating together.
