ON AN ON formed in 2001 when Nate Eshleman and Ryan Hernandez started working together in Los Angeles. They were later joined by Tim Nordwind and Freddy Herrera. Their early releases like 'Uppers and Downers' in 2003 and 'Give In' in 2005 established their sound, with songs like 'Drifting' gaining attention for its atmospheric quality.
Their music often features ethereal melodies and introspective lyrics, heard in tracks such as 'Every Song' and 'It's Not Over'. The band continued putting out albums through the 2000s and 2010s, including 'Spoiled' in 2007 and 'Birthplace' in 2010.
In 2006, a music video for their song 'Enemies' drew criticism for its violent imagery. Eshleman also faced an arrest in 2010, though charges were dropped. These incidents occurred alongside their musical output, which includes later albums like 'And the Wave Has Two Sides' and 'The Big Picture'.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
