There’s nothing quite like writing songs that evolve from a lonesome car ride, and then performing them in front of a crowd. Especially when friends and fans say that you’ve helped them or changed their life in some way, it’s the greatest feeling ever,†says lead singer and songwriter Jeff Astasauskas. The year is 2008, and at this time, with Guitar Center schlacking out 'buy one guitar, get one free amplifier' sales about every month, the Saint Louis music scene is becoming harder and harder to make a wave in. But thanks to a solid line-up and flawless song-writing, Our Great Escape will just ride them. Big chorus's complimented with beautiful melodies, supported by the blazing guitar leads in every other song are something to make even the most unenthusiastic emo kid stand up and shout. "I've never seen a band bring in such a wide audience- teeny-boppers, college kids, groups of middle-aged women, metal-heads. You typically only see those types of crowds with national acts. Their music is easy to like." - Joe @ Pops - St. Louis, MO Now that there are over 5000 copies of OGE's EP "This Is Why I'm Leaving" spinning in stereos (or ipods. ha.) throughout the Saint Louis area, it's highly likely that you could be belting out the same lyrics that the car next to you at the stop light are. The first track, "On A Sunday", which screams 'radio single', also appears on the "Midwest Music Explosion: Volume 1" compilation, along with tracks from other amazing Saint Louis artists such as Cavo, Modern Day Zero, and Stir.
