About Me

The Opposition is a four piece band that's always ready for a good time. Hailing from Jacksonville AR, their diverse style and musical scope set them apart from many other bands in the area.Formed in 1999, The Opposition has always stayed true to their original sound and purpose, despite having seen many personnel changes over the years. Their blend of smooth harmonies, soaring guitar solos, and overall strong musicianship and ability to play a wide range of requests on the spot, has helped them gain popularity, which is one reason why they have outlasted many others. They have played clubs, festivals, private parties, and benefits in and around the Central Arkansas area, and know how to keep the crowd on their feet. Their combination of covers and originals, coupled with their diverse talents have made them a mainstay in many venues, and the variety of genres they cover has kept the people asking for more.Layout by CoolChaser
