Onward, Soldiers

Onward, Soldiers is an Americana/Rock and Roll ensemble based out of Wilmington, NC. Known for their high-energy live performances and arsenal of original songs, they have been described as everything from “visceral and haunting,” to “rootsy,” and “catchy as hell!” Fronted by lead singer/songwriter Sean Thomas Gerard, the band was formed in the fall of 2008, and played with an evolving array of musicians throughout the following year while recording their debut album Ghosts in this Town. The current lineup includes guitarist Lincoln Morris, bassist Jarett Michael, and drummer Kevin Rhodes, with each member claiming a variety of other instruments—accordions, ocean harps, marching drums, saxophones, violins and cellos have been known to make frequent appearances at OS shows. In addition to an eclectic array of instrumentation, Onward, Soldiers has been known for antics ranging from employing interpretive dancers onstage to raining down balloons over their audience mid-show.
