It is no surprise that the number of "obsessed" fans grows daily with the release of their self titled debut featuring 10 emotional, yet rocking tracks that have drawn comparisons to Coldplay, early U2, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers and to newer bands like Switchfoot, The Killers and The Fray. The bands energetic liveshows turn O Day newbies into instant fans with a single run of their set. The easy, laid back manner in which the band presents itself is probably due to the fact that every member of Obsession Day is a seasoned pro. Frontman, Gary Pfaff, started as a singer/songwriter that toured with Edwin McCain and other platinum selling artists in the late 90's. Drummer, Kevin Caldwell, has performed in numerous bands including Wil's Drama and most recently he toured with Sugarland in support of their smash debut.
