Take To the Oars

The name Take To The Oars is derived from the latin proverb, "if the wind will not serve, take to the oars" PRESS: "Every melody slides off a cliff face, and every word is sung as though through a knife wound to the chest." - Kiernan Maletsky–The Westword "They reminded me of the band ATHLETE mixed with the intensity of MUSE. I felt myself moving with only audio guidance through each song they played. I have been really focused on bands before, but this was the first time I was ever literally intoxicated by a performance." - Ben Buchner. DEITRA Magazine The debut album from Take to the Oars, American Volume, combines eloquent tight-knit songwriting and lyrics so raw I experienced a catharsis in my personal life over the course of their nine-track album" - Stefanie Giesler-Colorado Music Buzz "Take to The Oars has refined a unique sound that showcases the state of music today: Top to bottom superior modern rock songs that embrace the freedom of being a musician while still appeasing the masses with heartfelt, contagious, songcraftsmanship." - The Swami-CMB Watch "Morning Coffee" http://youtu.be/IQw-3D7nMSQ || TWITTER @taketotheoarsCO . www.taketotheoars.bandcamp.com
