Legendary rock band O.A.R. is marking 30 years of music, friendship, and unforgettable live shows with the announcement of their O.A.R. Three Decades Tour with Gavin Degraw, Lisa Loeb, KT Tunstall and Phantom Planet.

To kick off the celebration, O.A.R. has released a brand-new single, “Where We Are Right Now,” available today on all streaming platforms. The track captures the group’s signature blend of heartfelt storytelling and feel-good energy, offering fans an anthem that reflects on their remarkable journey together.

“When we started playing songs together in a basement in Rockville, Maryland, in 1996, we had big dreams of being a real deal touring band,” said frontman Marc Roberge. “The fact we’ve gotten to live that life for the last 30 years is a testament to the power of our audience. This tour is our way of saying thank you—to every fan who made our dreams come true. We can’t wait to see each and every one of you out there on the Three Decades Tour.”

The milestone tour will feature all of O.A.R.’s greatest hits alongside a dynamic lineup of special guests, including Gavin DeGraw, Phantom Planet, Lisa Loeb, and KT Tunstall. Produced by Live Nation, the tour kicks off June 19 in Vail, Colorado, and will bring the band’s high-energy performances to iconic venues such as Red Rocks Amphitheatre, The Greek Theatre, and Jones Beach.

Tickets will be available via an artist presale beginning Tuesday, November 4, at 10 a.m., with general on-sale starting Friday, November 7, at 10 a.m. Fans can visit LiveOAR.com/Tour for more information and access to early tickets.

Formed in Rockville, Maryland, in 1996, O.A.R. — comprised of Marc Roberge (lead vocals, guitar), Richard On (lead guitar, backing vocals), Chris Culos (drums), and Jerry DePizzo (saxophone, guitar, backing vocals) — has evolved from a group of high school friends to one of the most enduring live acts in modern rock. Over the past three decades, the band has sold out Madison Square Garden twice, headlined Red Rocks more than a dozen times, earned multiple Platinum and Gold records, and built one of music’s most loyal fan communities.
