Learn More About Orlando Transit Authority

Founder Stan Allen and Musical Director Carl Dirkes hand-picked each member of the band based on one simple criteria: The degree to which he naturally sounds like the corresponding original member of Chicago. Any time you assemble players of this caliber, a great-sounding band is a given – but that wasn’t enough. OTA went one step further by seeking to emulate every stylistic nuance of the Chicago sound, both vocally and instrumentally. The vocal harmonies are right. The solos are right. The guitar sounds are right. EVERYTHING is right. Close your eyes and you just might forget who it is you’re listening to.

If you are moved by the technical virtuosity and sheer power of the greatest horn bands in pop music history, you will LOVE Orlando Transit Authority. Every member of the band loves this music – and it shows.
