The Greatest One-Hit Wonder You’ve Never Heard Of
“Fitzpatrick’s fascination becomes ours”
“It’s just an incredible movie. I can’t wait until everyone can watch this”
"Totally captivated. A great work of art."
Mike Hosty is a comedic one-man-band legend in Oklahoma. He doesn’t have a promoter or gimmick to get plays on Spotify. Those who know his talents swear by him. His sound fills up the room of a 4-piece band without relying on drum loops or triggers. There is simply nobody on earth quite like him.
This documentary explores why a legend of the underground avoids the limelight when he could be a millionaire.

Christopher Fitzpatrick’s OKLAHOMA BREAKDOWN profiles a one-of-a-kind one-hit iconoclast
Oklahoma Breakdown: The Mike Hosty Story - Film Review
"I went to the DeadCenter Film Festival Showing of ‘Oklahoma Breakdown: The Mike Hosty Story’ at Harkin’s Theater on Sunday June 12th, and was totally captivated by the film..."
“I’ve made six music documentaries, and as soon as the credits rolled on Oklahoma Breakdown I was angry I hadn’t discovered Mike Hosty first and made a seventh. A one-of-a-kind film about a one-of-a-kind artist. It’s loud, brash, funny, and laced with chaotic emotion. If you love rock n roll, especially in a raw, unadulterated form, you will become a fan of Mike Hosty and love every damn second of Oklahoma Breakdown.”
– Gorman Bechard, Executive Director/Lead Programmer of NHDocs
