Legendary rock band O.A.R. has announced the O.A.R Three Decades Tour, an expansive North American run celebrating the band’s remarkable three-decade journey. In celebration, O.A.R. has released a brand-new single, “Where We Are Right Now,” available today on all streaming platforms . O.A.R.’s newest track delivers their signature blend of heartfelt lyrics and uplifting energy, capturing the spirit of their journey as they launch their milestone anniversary tour.
“When we started playing songs together in a basement in Rockville, Maryland in 1996 we had big dreams of being a real deal touring band. We imagined playing our songs throughout the country, living life on the road, telling our stories to the world, “said frontman Marc Roberge "The fact we've gotten to live that life for the last 30 years is a testament to the power of our audience. This tour is our way of saying thank you - to every fan who made our dreams come true. We can't wait to see each and every one of you out there on the Three Decades Tour."
Featuring all of the band’s career defining hits and a dynamic lineup featuring special guests Gavin DeGraw, and KT Tunstall, the milestone tour will bring O.A.R.’s renowned live show to amphitheaters, arenas, and landmark venues across the U.S. including a stop in Cincinnati, OH at The Andrew J Brady Music Center on Friday, September 4.
Formed in Rockville, Maryland, in 1996, O.A.R. includes Marc Roberge (lead vocals, guitar), Richard On (lead guitar, backing vocals), Chris Culos (drums), and Jerry DePizzo (saxophone, guitar, backing vocals). The band has grown from high school friends jamming in basements to one of the most enduring live acts in modern rock. Over the last thirty years, O.A.R. has sold out Madison Square Garden twice, headlined Red Rocks Amphitheatre more than a dozen times, earned multiple Platinum and Gold certifications, and built one of the most passionate fan communities in music. This tour will see them perform across the nation’s most celebrated venues including The Greek Theatre, Red Rocks and Jones Beach.
Last month, O.A.R. celebrated the 20th anniversary of their breakthrough album Stories of a Stranger with a deluxe reissue, revisiting the era that produced hit singles like “Love and Memories,” “Lay Down,” and “Heard the World.” The release set the tone for an anniversary year that will include new music, collaborations, and archival content chronicling the band’s 30-year evolution. Stories Of A Stranger (20th Anniversary Edition) is coming Friday, December 5 with 4 new bonus tracks.
About O.A.R.:
It’s unbelievable that O.A.R. are still together thirty years since their first gig at an eighth grade talent show, but these musicians are no strangers to “unbelievable.” In fact, they’ve quietly shattered expectations at every turn over the last thirty years. Their journey may have started in Maryland, but it’s taken them around the world with multiple sold-out shows at Madison Square Garden and Red Rocks Amphitheatre, north of 1 billion streams, and multiplatinum success. Creating an expansive catalog beginning with 1997’s The Wanderer, they earned RIAA Gold certifications, three Top 15 Billboard 200 debuts, and collaborated with everyone from Robert Redford and Goo Goo Dolls to Wiz Khalifa and DJ Premier. Their latest album, The Arcade, features the fan favorite “In the Clouds.” O.A.R. members, Marc Roberge and Jerry DePizzo, are also founding partners of the Oceans Calling Festival in Ocean City, Maryland, a world-class, multi-day celebration of music and community. Working alongside and driven by their talented partner Tim Sweetwood and his team, they helped create a festival that has quickly become a cornerstone of Maryland’s cultural calendar, making a lasting positive impact on the community. “The true reward isn’t just in the music, it’s in the way it uplifts the community and shines a light on the great state of Maryland,” says Jerry DePizzo. Through their charity, Heard The World Fund, O.A.R. have raised millions for education, sustainability, and pediatric cancer causes. Heading into their 30th year in 2026, Marc Roberge, Richard On, Chris Culos, and Jerry DePizzo are still having a blast as brothers—and it shows every time they take the stage.
