All of the classic melodies we've heard over the course of our lives, the people in our youth who taught us to sing (or didn't), our parents for teaching us the English language through their usage of it -- but moreso simple day-to-day occurrences.

   About The Online Romance
The Online Romance is a co-ed chamber pop sextet from Portland, Oregon. Our combo strives to create perfect pop songs, an equal mixture of baroque melodies, girl group harmonies and folk storytelling. More information about our act can be gathered by visiting the FAQ page of our website, the URL for which is http://www.tonliner.com/ .

We're currently taking time off from playing many shows in order to finish work on an album of 12 songs, the first 4 of which are featured here on our profile. (Visit our last.fm page for higher quality audio.) Please leave us a comment with your encouragement! We hope to have the rest ready for your ears by spring 2009. In the meantime, join our e-mail list for updates and show info!

TOR,

you are so loved in Germany.

If you ever happen to visit, play at the "Evil & Hazardous", an old bunker from old war II and a GREAT venue.

Glad to have become friends with you guys :)

You Ain't No Picasso is a music blog I read and he did a post about Ladybug Don't Smile with a pretty cool description and a link to your myspace page. So I decided to check it out and it was really great :D
To make sure I wouldn't forget about The Online Romance (great bandname by the way) I sent you a friend request, et voila!

Looking forward to the album

Thank you so much. I got my ukulele on that day and thought about recording a spontaneous song. You just coined me.
