Oakwood

Oakwood works in the math rock and midwest emo space, with screamo edges that show up in the louder moments. The band has built a solid following on Spotify, over 127,000 strong, on the back of the genre's usual hallmarks: tapped-out guitar lines, shifting time signatures, and vocals that swing from quiet to raw.

They have a Colorado date coming up at Marquis. Good chance for fans of the heavier end of emo to catch the technical side of the genre up close.
