Rite On is an Oklahoma City based Pop-Rock band. "A band that started as a project" and went through many twists and turns as far as members go. After many years, and several trial runs with a few different band members, it seems that Rite On has finally found their family. Rite On is definitely a band to listen to, and watch for.
Made up of just three members, these guys have a vision for great music. Jared Owens leads the band on vocals and guitar. Aaron Vega rocks the bass, and Kyle Klingman puts down some pretty slick stickin' on drums. I stumbled upon this little group by accident, but I left as a fan. The first time I ever heard these guys play, was live, at Bora Bora night club and venue here in Oklahoma City. I was very impressed with this group, and what they have to offer to us as listeners. Rite On makes for a wonderful example of Pop-Rock music.
I am a sucker for the guitar and Rite On provides some nice plucking for my listening pleasure in all of their tunes. I personally love their song "Mojo" the most. Just before playing this song in their set at Bora Bore, it was mentioned that this song was inspired by a dog. This got my attention and I really listened in. Once I heard the lyrics, I realized that the dog comment must have been a joke, but an amusing one.
While this band provides some really great music, they are also very entertaining. The drummer, Kyle, makes for a quick-witted comedian in between songs. He definitely kept my attention in between songs, which then kept me listening. I really enjoy a band that can provide us with a little bit of humor, and Rite On definitely has that in Kyle.
I took the opportunity to approach Kyle and Aaron, to let them know that I really enjoyed their set. I also mentioned that this was the first time I had ever heard of them. Both guys were extremely kind, and appreciative of my kind words. Kyle let me know how I could find them on myspace.
I really appreciated this band for their music, kindness, and entertainment value. If you are a fan of pop-rock, you should definitely go and give these guys a listen. I personally recommend listening to "Mojo" and "Something" first, then listen to the other two tracks available since you are already there.
Rite On is working on recording an album. They do have a four song EP available they are selling at their live shows. Should you want to own a little piece of Rite On, just hit up their myspace page, and check their show dates.

Blimey. It happens to slip into my likings, too. What a coincidence! :) On a side note, can't wait.
