Biografía de O.A.R.

Of a Revolution, or as they are simply and better known as; O.A.R are an alternative rock, indie rock and roots rock band from Rockville, Maryland, United states of America.

The band was formed in 1996 with Marc Roberge and Chris Culos, they would then go on to recruit members Richard On and Benj Gershman. During this period they recorded their debut album "The Wanderer" this has received the ratings of 3 stars by AllMusic.

After graduating from high school the band members moved to study at he Ohio State University, while there they met Jerry DePizzo and soon he joined the band. With Jerry now in the band they would go on to record their second album "Soul's Aflame"

After the release of their albums the band played at many shows, relying purely on word of mouth they slowly built themselves up an audience that were interested with them after playing at various events and for sororities. This buzz about the band made sure that their third album was a success as it went straight to number 11 on the Billboard Top Internet Sales.

It was all uphill from here as the fifth album "Stories of A Stranger" received a 3 out of 5 stars rating from Allmusic and managed to peak at number 40 on the Billboard 200.

In 2008 the bands song "Love Is worth the Fall" could be heard on the deluxe edition soundtrack for the film Twilight.

Críticas en vivo

O.A.R. is one of my all time favorite bands! I have so many good memories from their music that I could go on and on about! Unfortunately I have only seen them once but it was a night I will never forget; January 27, 2007 at Madison Square Garden.

I am not usually a fan of huge venues like this, as I usually feel like smaller venues are more intimate and it’s a more emotional experience, but this was one of the best nights of my life. O.A.R. hit so many of their classics that night including my all time favorite “That Was A Crazy Game Of Poker” as their last song before the encore. The energy was incredible and the entire concert just had an overall feel great type of attitude to it.

As a musician, hearing Marc Roberge’s voice is like tasting chocolate for the first time. I can only wish I could have vocal abilities like that. Their music is generally just so uplifting and healthy.

If you are a fan of rock, you need to check this band out. As I said before, you just can’t listen to O.A.R. without feeling incredible. I give this concert a 10/10 experience and thinking about it now, I am upset I haven’t been able to go to another O.A.R. show.
