A lot of things have happened to Oh My!‘s sound since I wrote about them two years ago. Back then, they had entered a studio, recorded and mixed five songs in less than 20 hours, while their current productions hardly can be created that fast. They have, since a while back, stepped out of the garage and put themselves on a bigger stage.

The base is still there, though: a feelgood indie with nice melodies and raw guitars. So far they have released a few singles, that have gained quite some traction in for example national Swedish radio, and now on February 29th, they will release a three-track EP on vinyl. Additionally, a week ago, the new song “Fifteen Minutes” was the starting track on a new  collection from their label A West Side Fabrication.

As usual I asked how the band name was born, and obviously it had something to do with Christoffer Walken:

As a celebration to the American actor Christopher Walken’s magical, beautiful hair, the band chose to call themselves “Christopher Walken’s Hair, Oh My!”. They even tried to contact Mr. Walken to check out that he didn’t mind, but to no avail. But pretty soon the guys realised how complicated and unnecessary the long name was. So they settled for the shorter Oh My!

You can keep track of tha band’s doings on their site or on Facebook, and their songs are also available on Spotify.
