OMT & the Core

OMT play’s a variety of music from Rock to Indie to Country-from classic to current. Their approach is simple – choose great works and try to play them in their own style.

OMT was formerly ONE MORE TIME, originally founded by Rob Steininger and Tom Schlueter. One More Time was a band with rich long history and a strong following. In an industry in which the lifespan of most bands can be measured in months, One More Time had defied the odds. For a better part of three decades they were a local favorite delivering a steady diet of intense improvisation and jamming over classic Rock songs.

Multi-talented drummer and vocalist Bob Carroll of OMT was a founding member of One More Time, and in its final years OMT guitarist and vocalist Dick Kuhn joined the One More Time band. When Steininger and Schlueter left the band in 2011, Carroll and Kuhn teamed up with famed guitarist – songwriter Mike Aquino together with well known bassist John Jannotti for the 2012 season.

OMT had yet another reconfiguration this year with bassist Jannotti heading to Florida.  Forging ahead as it has done many times before, OMT was able to obtain the professional services of bassist Jason Trtan – a graduate of Boston’s Berklee College of Music, as well as a bass instructor.

OMT regularly appears at local venues like Frankies’s Blue Room in Naperville and in some of the areas most popular music festivals such as Naperville’s “Rib Fest” and “Last Fling” events. The band supports live music and venues that promote live music. OMT supports music of all genres and frequently invites other musicians to perform with them.
