Formed in 1998 by Cris Brown and Jereme Hubble . Finding solid members in Kevin Scott and Brian Kirk , the band began performing throughout the south to anyone who would listen. OLR Began playing for small crowds that soon grew to 200-300 per show in their hometown of Jackson, Tenn. OLR recorded new 4 song demo at Tree Studio's in Atlanta, Ga. with producer Rick Beato in January of 2003.
The newly recorded songs have gained quick attention from the music industry and radio stations across the south. OLR has begun to reach a wider audience with the help of 105.7 in Union city, Tenn, WZZL in Paducah,Ky, WMFS and The Buzz (94.1) in Memphis, Tenn. Opening slots with Saliva and Trust Company has helped increased awareness and establish a fan base.
October 2003, OLR enters the studio again to record with Producer Pete Thornton (Cold Play, Matchbox 20, Shine down) and merges in with Matt Alvers Promotions. Look for the new demo in stores and on line NOW! At Itunes, Walmart.com and Best Buys everywhere
