O.A.R.
Everfine/Lava/Atlantic recording group O.A.R. is gearing up to hit the road this summer in support of their forthcoming studio album, All Sides, which will be released on July 15. The three month, 36-date “All Sides Tour” will kick off on June 15 at the prestigious Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival. O.A.R. will bring their critically acclaimed live show to several well known venues across the country, including San Francisco’s Fillmore, New Jersey’s PNC Bank Arts Center, Long Island’s Nikon at Jones Beach Theater, Anaheim’s House of Blues, and Phoenix’s Dodge Theatre.

This Friday, April 25 and Saturday, April 26 tickets for select dates on the “All Sides Tour” will go on sale to the general public through Ticketmaster. In anticipation of the release of O.A.R.’s new album, the band is providing Ticketmaster.com summer tour ticket buyers with the unique opportunity to pre-order an MP3 version of the new album along with their ticket purchase. To ensure that summer concert attendees are familiar with songs from the new album, O.A.R has arranged for MP3s of “This Town,” and “What Is Mine,” two tracks from the new album, to be provided to fans within 24 hours of their ticket purchase. On June 16, the band’s first single, “Shattered,” goes to radio and fans who opted for the MP3 album/ticket bundle will be able to download the song. The remaining 10 tracks from All Sides will be provided to purchasers of the album/ticket bundle on July 14, the day before the album’s official release. Individuals who purchased their summer tour tickets during the band’s official pre-order or through the early public on-sales at Ticketmaster.com will be notified via email about how they can opt into this special album/ticket package as well. For more information and to purchase tickets, go to www.ticketmaster.com.

All Sides is O.A.R.’s first new studio album since 2005’s popular breakthrough, Stories Of A Stranger, which included the band’s hit singles “Love and Memories,” and “Heard The World.” All Sides was recorded in Los Angeles and was produced by Matt Wallace (Maroon 5, Blues Traveler, and Chantal Kreviazuk).
