Ona's FULL MOON, HEAVY LIGHT Out Today
By: Tori Hartshorn May. 10, 2019
Indie-rock band Ona's highly anticipated new album, Full Moon, Heavy Light, is out today. Their first release in partnership with Tyler Childers' label Hickman Holler Records, the album is now available to stream/purchase HERE.
Produced by Drew Vandenberg (Of Montreal, Deerhunter, Futurebirds), Full Moon, Heavy Light was recorded at Chase Park Transduction in Athens, GA and includes nine new songs co-written by the five band members: Brad Goodall (keys, background vocals), Bradley Jenkins(guitar, vocals), Zachary Johnston (bass), Max Nolte (drums, percussion) and Zack Owens(lead guitar, background vocals).
In celebration of the release, the band will continue their extensive headline tour this spring and summer with upcoming stops at Lexington's The Burl, Nashville's The Basement, Chicago's Sleeping Village, Brooklyn's Rough Trade, Washington, DC's Songbyrd and Los Angeles' Moroccan Lounge among several others. See below for complete details.
The release of Full Moon, Heavy Light follows a series of breakout years for the 5-piece band, who take their name from the small town of Ona, WV-just outside their home base of Huntington, WV. Since the release of their debut album, American Fiction, in 2016, Ona has received widespread acclaim, including coverage at NPR Music's "Heavy Rotation," who called their song, "Ides Of July," "a debut single that knocks all else out of the water." Additionally, No Depression praised, "It's impossible to resist the deep, power-pop grooves on Ona's debut album." Since their formation, the band has built their following the old-fashioned way-through word of mouth and extensive touring. In addition to performing across the country with artists such as Childers, Blank Range and Blackfoot Gypsies, the band has also been featured on SiriusXM's "The Loft" as well as an episode of the esteemed NPR program, Mountain Stage.
