Today, platinum selling band & modern day live legends O.A.R. debuted their new song “In The Clouds,” the first single off their upcoming tenth studio album ‘The Arcade’, out this summer. O.A.R. is set to embark on their Summer tour in July alongside Dispatch. They will be making 37 stops in Los Angeles, San Diego, Denver, Atlanta, Cleveland, Nashville, Boston, Chicago, New York, Philly, Austin, Virginia Beach and more along with some solo shows (full routing below).

“In The Clouds” transports you to your inner happy place with its downtempo and trance-like nature vibe along with a mixture of electronic instruments with acoustic instruments such as the trumpet, guitar, drums, etc. The track is about holding onto youthful freedom and celebrating your imagination, while spotlighting the beauty of being able to enjoy your private world no matter how old you are.
“In the Clouds is a song about the power of imagination,” stated lead singer Marc Roberge. “Each and every one of us deserve a break from the noise, some time in our thoughts. This is a song about taking that adventure whenever we can.”
The forthcoming album is an evolving collective representing the group's journey — intended not only to highlight the range in their songwriting, but more so the ever expanding range of the band’s imagination. Like games in an arcade, each song has its own story, look, feel and flow, but simultaneously exists comfortably inside the arcade it’s housed in. Stay tuned for more info on the album.
Later today, O.A.R. and Dispatch will be throwing a summer tour pre-party, hosted by Jason Biggs and presented by Capital One, that will stream live from Relix Studio in New York City today at 5pm ET. Fans can subscribe to the Relix Magazine Channel on Twitch to watch the full event for free. Find more info HERE.
