about
In 2020 OM53 (formerly ØM-53) released their debut album Defender. The album was the band's first attempt at creating something that sounded different than most Christian radio at the time. Tired of the same sound and with little help, the New Jersey natives sat in their room, produced their album, and released one song a month. Defender, inspired by synthwave sounds, broke through all the noise and with over 1 million streams on streaming platforms made its way into radio in Latin America and the UK. That year Defender was named song of the year on one of Guatemala's biggest radio stations. As the team grew, so did their sound and Junior Year (Homecoming) Side A came to life. The now indie pop band was ready to show their supporters a more intimate side of their music. This album was an open letter that showed the guys' struggle with insecurities, love, church politics, and just growing up. Since then, the small indie band from New Jersey has opened for acts like Colony House, Newsboys, Lecrae, We the Kingdom, and others playing a wide range of venues all over the country such as the main stage at Creation Fest, Soul Fest, and the Mann Center in Philadelphia. https://om-53.bandcamp.com/ User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
