O.A.R., Wednesday, July 27
On Sale Saturday April 30 at Noon Central Standard Time

The members of O.A.R. first came together in Rockville, Maryland in the basement of drummer Chris Culos' childhood home. As a young group of musicians, they were the prototype of the modern, self-starting band--taking charge of their fate by working the internet and building an identifiable sound. The band's music, a rock/reggae fusion, consisted of songs that were fully accessible, yet teasingly elusive. Attracting fans all across the country, the band members toured relentlessly, pushing their album sales through boundless dedication and word-of-mouth appeal, never waiting for the industry to catch up.
