World-renowned composer and producer Amy Denio met OU in Rome on her birthday last June and fell in love with the sextet's magical sounds.
Denio worked with the band through the fall and produced OU's CD PiscesCrisis, released recently to strong reviews. The album, crafted with Floyd Reitsma at Litho Studios (Pearl Jam's studio) in Seattle, is now available on Denio's Spoot Music label.

OU is ecstatic to be able to share their musical adventures at the Arcata Playhouse!
