About Me

The OK Corral is the brainchild of singer/songwriter Brett Nickley and lead guitarist Michael Matthews. Formed from their friendship in high school at Springfield, Virginia's Robert E. Lee High School, Brett and Mike began making music together in early July 2007. After producing a short EP and performing a handful of shows as a guitar-only duo, The OK Corral became a trio with the addition of Nate Graham on drums. After a crash course of practices, the band hopes to go into the studio in the next 3 months to produce their first recordings together.
Brett and Nate are currently students at the University of Mary Washington, while Mike attends Virginia Tech.
