OHN

"Within minutes of starting their set, the six-member OHN took control of the room: a powerful mix of electronic and traditional instrumentation with gorgeous, melodies, soulful vocals, raging guitar riffs and muscular sax lines, that orbited around chunky, electronic poly-rhythms designed to bypass the brain and go straight to the booty! This is not an outfit that produces sterile 'electronica' and barely notices the audience - these people know how to get it on for a live show." - Marsha Mann, Insite Magazine OHN's style has been described as "DJ Shadow meets Bitches Brew-era Miles Davis" and has garnered rave reviews from local and national media. OHN utilizes a deadly combination of dual guitars, trumpet, keys, bass, drums, middle-eastern instruments, programmed beats, saxophone and samples to create a remarkable live, electronic sound. OHN formed when a diverse group of musicians from several popular Austin bands found a common musical ground. Bildeaux, founding father, programmer and producer, has worked on material for talented artists such as Jarboe from the Swans, Riggs from Rob Zombie, Soak (Interscope/Sire) and Laura Scarborough. Chris Forshage has played with many acts including Larry and Grass. Andrew Tachovsky is also a guitar veteran, previously sharing stages with Chris in the band Pura Vida. Ryan Blum-Kryzstal is a poet and jazz vocalist, currently attending the prestigious New School Of Jazz in NYC. Brad Houser is a veteran of several top notch bands such as Critter's Buggin(Ropeadope), The New Bohemians(Geffen), and Lila's Medicine. The most recent addition is Allison Scharf, providing sensual vocals that mix perfectly with the sultry downtempo sounds. This powerhouse ensemble has been wowing audiences with its unique visual and ever changing live performances, and has taken free form electronic music to an all new level.
