Rachel & Griffin

ARCADIA, Okla. — Oklahoma City folk duo Rachel & Griffin will perform a free Sunday Elm Tree Concert on Sunday, July 5, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. on the north side of the historic Arcadia Round Barn.

Known for their heartfelt songwriting, engaging harmonies, and lively audience participation, Rachel & Griffin have become one of the Midwest’s most popular touring folk acts. The married duo performs full-time and travels nationally throughout the year, creating memorable concerts that blend Americana warmth, acoustic storytelling, humor, and genuine connection with their audiences.

Drawing inspiration from their life together, Rachel & Griffin’s songs explore the joys, challenges, and everyday realities of relationships. Their easygoing stage presence and relatable stories make audiences feel less like spectators and more like part of the show.

More than a traditional folk concert, Rachel & Griffin’s performances are known for audience interaction, featuring crowd games, prizes, sing-alongs, and plenty of spontaneous fun. Their concerts often include witty banter, handmade trophies for audience participants, and fan-favorite songs that have helped build a loyal following across the country.

“Rachel & Griffin create an experience that’s about more than music,” said Round Barn Music Director Joe Baxter. “Their songs, stories, and audience interaction make every performance feel personal and memorable. We’re excited to welcome them to the Elm Tree Concert series.”

The concert is free and open to the public, although donations are appreciated to support the ongoing preservation of the historic 1898 Arcadia Round Barn. Guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and enjoy an afternoon of live music beneath the shade of the Round Barn’s historic elm tree.

The Arcadia Round Barn is located at 107 E. Highway 66 in Arcadia, Oklahoma. For more information, visit the Round Barn or call (405) 396-0824.
