Soundup Roundup Returns to The Church Studio

Songwriters Share Stories and Faith

In partnership with Brut Hotel and the Oklahoma Film + Music Office, The Soundup Club will host an intimate Songwriters Round featuring Majeste Pearson, CYDNI, and Dan Lee on March 25, 2026, at The Church Studio. The event offers audiences a rare opportunity to experience the stories behind the songs in an up-close listening environment.

What is the Soundup Roundup at The Church Studio?

Part of the Soundup Roundup series, the evening celebrates the craft of songwriting through the popular “songwriters in the round” format, where artists take turns sharing the inspiration behind their music before performing the songs live.

This special edition will feature a gospel-inspired evening of powerful voices and meaningful songwriting, as Majeste Pearson, CYDNI, and Dan Lee perform original music rooted in faith, storytelling, and personal experience.

“We are excited for our first gospel round. Knowing that The Church Studio was once a functioning and vibrant community church, it feels fitting for us to sing songs of faith in rooms that once held the praises of the people not too many years ago,” said Caleb Voth, of the band VOTH. “Majeste, CYDNI, and Dan Lee will each bring such a unique sound to The Church.”

Events like the Soundup Roundup reflect the mission of Soundup Club, a Tulsa-based creative community dedicated to helping songs move from idea to studio to stage while supporting songwriters at every stage of their careers.
