The Wanderer

O.A.R.

A raw, high-school-era live studio recording. Sun-drenched acoustic guitars meet soulful saxophone and island rhythms in a quintessential summer jam session.

1997

Find on Amazon

A sun-soaked, youthful optimism tempered by the raw, unpolished energy of a live garage session.

Moments Worth Listening For
The frantic, escalating acoustic strumming and card-game narrative that drives the eight-minute centerpiece of track 2.
The soulful, wandering saxophone solo that emerges halfway through track 9, grounding the album's longest jam.
The raw, hungover honesty of the opening vocal lines on track 1, setting a vulnerable but communal tone.
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
