Formed from the ashes of their former band Scattered Trees – a band made up of friends who grew up together on the outskirts of Chicago, now separated by unworkable distances – ON AN ON announce their arrival emphatically with their debut track ‘Ghosts’.

Having already booked studio time with producer Dave Newfield (Broken Social Scene, Super Furry Animals, Los Campesinos) before the demise of their previous band, the three remaining members - Nate, Alissa and Ryne – took the decision to start from scratch with a new project and ON AN ON was born.

On the baroque indie track ‘Ghosts’ we hear a group of experienced musicians completely in tune with one another, whilst capturing the energy and excitement of fresh inspiration. And it’s as epic a debut track you’re likely to hear all year.

ON AN ON’s debut album ‘Give In’ is due to be released in 2013, 29th January on Roll Call Records. Debut single ‘Ghosts’ is out now.
