The country band 12/OC was born in their family kitchen in
Portland, Maine when brothers Will
and Reid were both under 14 years old. Country music was always
playing in their household, and making music together was, simply
put, the way of life. The band started to find its groove at open
mic nights throughout the region, which became the foundation to
turning this family pastime into a family career. As their
popularity has grown so has their versatility; their wide range of
music has helped increase their fan base across the country, making
them one of the fastest growing country music acts in New England.
Having the most requested song on Maine's #1 Country Music station for 16 straight
weeks, as well as adding a handful of New England Music
Awards,12/OC isn't slowing down anytime soon.
12/OC also has a weekly morning feature with the Jon, Joe and
Courtney morning show on WPOR called "12/OC Takeover".
