Known as the first official collegiate a cappella group in Oregon, On The Rocks began a tradition of excellence in a genre that was previously unheard of in the Northwest.

Trilogy, a band made of a U of O faculty member, a staff member (well, previously), and a student, invites you to listen to and support our music, too. Come on over (search onTrilogy).

Thanks!

You will be able to buy these tracks seperately @ www.acatunes.com the four On the Rocks albums should be up within the week. Please keep checking back often. The opening track is "Never gonna give you up" from the Rick Roll Craze that we all know so well. Enjoy your Rick Astley. Remember all sounds you hear are made by the human voice.

Very nice job guys. I never expected you all to do "In The End" but I was pleasantly surprised.

I was listening to Depeche Mode in the car today and you know, they're music would sound very interesting acapella. Personal Jesus is a song that everyone knows, but Everything Counts would be terrific.

Also, I wonder how New Order would sound acapella?! Blue Monday or Bizarre Love Triangle are the more popular suggestions. All the synth would be interesting acapella, but it would probably be really difficult.

One more, Ministry's Everyday is Halloween would be perfect for any shows you have in October, and I know that one would be amazingly good.

I was totally trapped in the 80s until I found this site. For realz! ;-)

I've been an avid OTR fan for about 5 years now. It's good to see you guys on here!

I'd love to see Insomniac, Change in my LIfe, Romeo and Juliet, or Hallelujah on here.

You guys have been underrated in the past few years! I hope ICCA starts recognizing you again (I may be a BYU girl, but UO a cappella has a special place in my heart).
