"The Mighty Orq stands flat-foot and delivers... with everything he plays."
- Ray Wylie Hubbard
"Tune in and dig it - I dig The Mighty Orq. The Mighty Orq is Mighty Fine, Mighty Fine."
- Shinyribs
"Pure Texas."
- Martin Sexton
The Mighty Orq is so many things. He is bayou blues in a suit and tie. He’s gritty folk storytelling, unfurling from under an open road Stetson. He’s swampy juke joint fun, mischievous and free. He is classical virtuosity, improvised on a cigar box guitar. He is growling rock-and-roll. Critics and audiences have known and loved the Houston-based Orq for decades now. His fanbase is loyal, international, and always growing, thanks not just to his albums, but to consistent touring throughout the US and Europe. On his 9th album Stolen, Orq proves his wild exploration of roots music remains a gift to the rest of us. - Elisabeth C. Parks
NEWS & UPDATES! 12.12.2024 Good gravy, y'all, can you believe we made it another year?! I mean, I believe it, but it's always surprising to me how quickly time passes when you're lost in the grind. Don't let that opportunity slip by. Ride the slide at the park. Say yes to the dinner party or coffee hang. These are the moments we get, and they are precious. With that in mind, don't miss our last show of 2024 at legendary H-town juke joint, The Big Easy. The band and I (featuring Chris Ardoin on drums & Will Story on Bass) will be playing Friday night Dec. 20 starting promptly at 9pm. AS Some of y'all may know, The Big Easy is something of my musical home base in Houston. I grew up playing there, meeting (and sometimes jamming with) all the brilliant players that came through, and continue to come through. Some heavy hitters who come to mind are Alan Haynes, Gary Clark Jr. Texas Johnny Brown, Trudy Lynn, Luther Rada, just top name a few. Anyhow! Chris, Will, the Big Easy Crew, and I hope you can join us for a New Year's Eve-eve-eve-eve-etc. to be remembered. Until then, I wish you all a wonderful holiday season, and we look forward to making more music (and another record!??!?!?) for you in 2025. Be good to yourselves and be good to one another. - TMO
