Oh My God!

OMG. Oh My God is hitting the coast-to-coast tour circuit once again, playing a total of 40 dates. The Chicago band will be playing The Strutt this Friday at 10 p.m.

Oh My God features vocalist and bassist Billy O'Neill, organist and vocalist Ig, Zach Verdoorn on bass, guitar and vocals, and drummer Danny Yost.

The band is touring in support of their new release, The Night Undoes the Work of the Day (Split Red Records), which drops today.

The band plays with an upbeat tempo, rocking guitar riffs, and open, rich vocals. OMG's combination of organ and bass with soulful vocals creates a uniquely haunting yet infectious sound that will have the listener singing along before you even realize.

"We've pieced this album together from songs written and recorded during some hard times for our band and our families. The emotions in the songs are all over the place, yet they're coming out as joy once we hit the stage together-- these shows are like uncorking an overly pressurized bottle for us!" says Ig, which is short for The Iguana.

Check out tracks "My Own Adventure" and "Better Than That" on the band's Novo page.

To witness OMG at The Strutt, the cost is $5. Playing with Oh My God is Baby Teeth & Their Teeth Will Be Of Lions.
