Band Bios
Each month in 2007 OnTap profiled one of the local bands in the area you should be listening to. But we don't just tell you about great music; we give it to you! Our annual On the Verge compilation CD is on the streets featuring 12 great tracks from the metro area's best acts...and it's absolutely free! Check out the tunes in the player on the left, and if you like what you hear (and you will), pick up your free copy of the CD at any of the locations listed on the right side of this page.

To find out more about each group, just click on their name or picture above.
