ON was a solo project of Ken Andrews , which he started after the breakup of his previous band, Failure band Failure . The music of ON was not unlike that of Failure, in terms of Songwriter songwriting , but the overall sound was more based on Electronic music electronics , with less emphasis on guitar s and the typical Hard rock heavy rock sound. ON was signed to Epic Records in 1999, and the first single, Soluble Words , was released late that year. It contains four versions of the song, including a remix by Martin Gore of Depeche Mode , and an exclusive track called Your Sister Says John written by Andrews friend Jordon Zadorozny of Blinker the Star . After several months, ON s album Shifting Skin was released in June 2000. Ken then assembled a backing band, which consisted of drummer Tim Dow ex Shiner band Shiner Season to Risk , bassist Tommy Walter Abandoned Pools , guitarist Joey Sykes, and keyboardist Kevin Moore, and took ON on tour. Another single, Slingshot , was serviced to radio, but the album didn t sell well, and Epic eventually released Andrews from his contract. A second ON album, Make Believe , was released in 2002 via CD Baby and the iTunes Store . Also in 2002, he and Dow formed a new group called Year of the Rabbit . Currently, Andrews is working both as a solo artist and as a member of Digital Noise Academy, as well as being a sought after Record producer producer and session musician .
