O.A.R. in Chicago

O.A.R. is an American rock band formed in 1996 in Rockville, Maryland. The group plays alternative and roots rock, often extending songs through jam-band improvisation, and is known for “That Was a Crazy Game of Poker,” “Love and Memories” and “Shattered (Turn the Car Around).” O.A.R. built its early audience through extensive touring on the US college circuit, where “That Was a Crazy Game of Poker” became a concert staple. The band documented a 2007 New York performance on the album and concert film Live from Madison Square Garden, capturing its full-band arrangements and extended instrumental passages. It has also returned repeatedly for headline concerts at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado.
