Hi, I’m Adrienne Osborn. I have an indie pop band that I call Adrienne O. We formed in 2012. We started out playing places like the Toad Tavern, Lion’s Lair and the wonderfully named Pit Stop. Over the past few years, we’ve played at the Gothic Theater, the Oriental Theater, the Bluebird Theater, the Fox […]
Last night we cancelled our rooftop pool party and concert at the last minute. We arrived and started setting up, and then the building management told us we couldn’t actually use the pool deck, even though we had rented the owner’s club, outside of which is the pool.

Photo: Scott Brayshaw I’ve always been reticent to use my body in our videos, but this video features my body throughout. I will even appear to be naked in some fleeting shots, thanks to a nude-colored bodysuit. […]
If you were paying really close attention to our Facebook page recently, you might have noticed something big that I haven’t talked about. I figured it’s about time to mention it. We recently took new photos of our new band members Jake Harrison (keys) and Jacob Warner (backup vocals)… …and while I was there posting […]
