			For the curious, the idea for the group arose when Leo saw the Whiffenpoofs, an a cappella group from Yale, in his hometown in Brazil of all places. Disappointed in not finding a similar group when he went to Oregon, he ventured out to find some "bros" to sing with. Leo does graphical and web design work for On the Rocks. He currently is pursuing his passion for the recording arts. I want to thank all the fans of OTR.You are the driving force behind the singers. Also, On the Rocks would not have become what it did without the help of Carmen, now my wife, who was pretty much part of the group. Her photography can be seen in the original OTR album.
