We’re pleased to announce a live event to celebrate the release of our first music video! The premier will take place on Tuesday, February 21st, 2012 at R2/Rapture in Charlottesville, VA. JJ and Bruce will be trading DJ sets all night, with the video shown for the first time ever at midnight! You do not want to miss this event!

Just in case you haven’t seen the teaser clips we’ve been posting on YouTube, here’s the latest:

We spent the better part of yesterday filming what will become the first Oh So music video, for the track Erotic. We have literally more than 24 hours worth of video to review before entering the editing stage. Here is the first preview, and the first photo of the new Oh So lineup.

We are quite excited to announce that the Oh So family has grown to 4. It is a great pleasure to announce that starting in January of 2012 we will be joined on live drums by Jordan Marchini

Jordan brings a lifetime of drumming experience to Oh So, having toured in over thirty countries with acts like Hanzel und Gretyl and Bella Morte. He is also a drum instructor. For more information about Jordan, check out his website at http://www.JordanMarchini.com/

We will be announcing our first live performance with Jordan in the near future… stay tuned.

Additional vendors will follow!

The EP will also be distributed at all of the major mainstream digital vendors (iTunes, AmazonMp3, et al). We will post links as they become available. Remember that when you buy from BandCamp the money goes directly to Oh So with essentially no middleman, and they offer downloads in all major file formats, so there’s no need to wait! Download now!

Want to help us celebrate the release of Erotic One? Come to the Twisted Branch Tea Bazaar in Charlottesville, Va this Saturday at 9pm, where we will be sharing the stage with Manorlady (Cville) and Dead Fame (Richmond). The cost is a mere 6 dollars. This will be our first set in this venue, so we hope everyone can make it out!

Erotic One is the first in a small series of EPs to be issued over the next couple of months. The premise of these EPs is twofold:

First: The EPs are intended as a companion to the full length album released on Radio-Active-Music earlier this year, All I Ever Wanted. If All I Ever Wanted is like a tunnel through some of life’s darker feelings, these EPs are the light at the end of that tunnel. Erotic One and it’s future companions are here to make you laugh, make you dance, and maybe more…

Second: I wanted to pay tribute to one of my favorite eras in pop music. I’ll call it 1979-1984. I spent the better part of my teen years in used record shops up and down the east coast, taking hours at a time to dig through crate after crate of records, searching for gems from my favorite new wave, new romantic, and synth pop artists. Maybe it’s my perception, but I feel like it was much more commonplace at that time for bands to release singles and EPs: small groups of tracks that may or may not fit the general theme of a record, along with scads of incredible remixes.

Erotic One is like the digital equivalent of those 12 inch records I used to love so much. This time, instead of blowing dust off an old record and painstakingly placing the needle, all you have to do is download these tracks and load them on your mp3 player.

For those that are interested in a preview, we’ve uploaded a remix of one of the Erotic One tracks to our bandcamp page as a FREE single. Click below to check out “Make It Stop (I Scream Edit).”

Lyrics for all of the tracks on Erotic One can also now be found on the lyrics page. The EP will be released first on our bandcamp page starting Thursday, 10/20, with other vendors (iTunes, Amazon mp3, et al) to follow.

We’ve created a Facebook Group to initiate the beginnings of an Oh So street team.

Rather than a simple collective of fans, the intent is to foster direct contact and interaction between Oh So and our fans. In exchange for helping to promote upcoming Oh So shows and releases, we will offer free, discounted, and wherever possible EXCLUSIVE merchandise and music.

Our first Street Team campaign will be to promote the September 6th Charlottesville Va show with Autumn Cannibals. Join this facebook group now to help take part in the promotion. We will post details for the campaign on Saturday August 13th.
