OAT Takes A Holiday |
After 35 years of toping and bellowing, we've been taking a year or so off to sober up (sic) and try to remember where we left our hats and wallets. We plan to regroup at some point in the coming year; so keep checking this space, please, and know that we miss you more. — T, D & D

OAT Falls In Harmony's Way... |
OAT appears along with 14 other Trad Music vocalists in a new CD release In Harmony's Way. Produced by Steve Baughman, who gathered together many of the SF Bay area's best-known a capella folkies--voices like Sylvia Herold, Shay & Micheal Black, Dick Holdstock and Alan McCleod, Lani Hermann, Kim Hughes, Pam Swan, et al--with the idea of re-constructing a typical pub sing in the UK or Ireland. The CD release concert will occur on Friday, July 8th at the Freight & Salvage. Singing along is the name of the game, so take a deep breath and come on down. |
OAT at The Black Rose and on the Radio in Santa Rosa
Saturday April 2nd |
How long has it been since you've been at an OAT concert where you could sit and listen and sing along with a righteous pint in your hand, matching the rioters on stage pull-for-pull and note-for-note? We'll be at the Black Rose Pub in Santa Rosa April 2nd — and on KRCB FM's "Our Roots Are Showing" in the afternoon. Tune in to the webcast if you aren't local, and come on up wherever you live!

OAT on the Yukon Quest
The Bonanza Inn, Whitehorse, Yukon Territory, Canada
Monday 13 February |
While mushing sled dogs with Muktuk Kennels in the day, we sang for the 21st Century sourdoughs thronging the lounge at the Bonanza Inn in downtown Whitehorse in the evening. A warm (no mean feat with outside temps in the -20s) and welcoming audience turned up—mostly locals as the throngs that were in town for the start of the Yukon Quest on Saturday had gone back to their lower latitude lives by Monday. Snaps of OAT on the runners will appear shortly in the Photo Album page. Stay tuned! |

OAT - Midsummer Freight
Saturday July 17th |
Our bi-annual evening at our favorite local venue: the Freight and Salvage. Come on down and lift your voices and spirits with us as we set the Way-Bak for 1723--the year porter was invented.
And check out the historical poster display in the Freight's lobby during the break or as you file in. There are photo bills from our appearances in the 70's and 80's--back when we had more hair and less circumference! |
