Oak is Keeping, a band formed out of the pure love of rock music, has finally come full circle after a revolving door of musicians. OiK is the project Shay and Mastin gave birth to after a brief hiatus from music. They wanted to build the band around the thing they do best.... dark, heavy, exciting rock music. And with the help of guitarist Zac and bassist Adam, that is what Oak is Keeping are doing!
VOTE for Oak is Keeping on SPIN.com! We are doing well, but need help to win.
Animal Style (2009) is Oak is Keeping's first full length album. It features updated versions of some songs from the old EPs, as well as plenty of new tracks. The record is full of guitar riffs, explosive drums, fat bass lines, harmonies, and everything that is great about good rock & roll.

"Oak is Keeping is like Cream conducting the marriage between Spoon and Queens of the Stone Age." -Michal Durham (The Daily Texan)
"One local band, Oak is Keeping, is carrying the torch for what some would now call radio rock. Their mix of modern rock hallmarks along with classic rock and blues influences sounds fresh and would be at home on stations such as 101X and KLBJ." -Ana Wolken (INsite Magazine)
