It is with heavy heart and heavy body that OFM have decided to call it a day. After 2 albums, 3 EPs and a considerable amount of rock and/or roll we have decided we can’t give the band the time or effort required now we are all international businessmen with a woman in every port. Thanks to all the bands we have befriended, all the punters who’ve punted and all the people who have helped make the whole thing a joyous task. We will be releasing a very special limited edition of our new album along with a 2nd disc of the chronology of OFM with all the tracks we have recorded throughout our illustrious history. Thanks to my band mates – my best friends for making me laugh and smile and making some beautiful rock music along the way.
