Album Notes

So, you say you want a revolution? Upbeat grooves and thought provoking lyrics form an energy and passion that makes O.A.R. so refreshing.

O.A.R. blends music's purest elements of rock, pop, folk, funk, and reggae creating a sound and feeling so original it is hard to place this steady, feel good groove in just one genre.

All five members are students at Ohio State University and have built a large regional following along with a national fan base spreading throughout most major college campuses across the country.

The idea behind O.A.R. is to ensure that each person who experiences the music comes away with an unforgettable memory.

With the release of 'Risen' produced by John Alagia, the band's recording debut on Everfine Records, O.A.R. truly comes of age in the studio. The eleven songs perfectly capture the energy and power of their live performance. O.A.R. continues to tell stories not only with the lyrics, but with the music at the same time.
