OK Go is a collective made up of Damian Kulash, Tim Nordwind, Dan Konopka and Andy "Rusty" Ross.
They are also well known for their geek rock outfits which include waistcoats, sweater vests, ties, shirts, and dress pants such as khakis, office trousers or chinos which they use when performing in reminiscence of bands such as Weezer, They Might Be Giants and hellogoodbye. Influenced by artists like Cheap Trick, Raspberries, Fugazi, T. Rex and Queen, OK Go shares management with They Might Be Giants, another band with whom they toured before signing to Capitol Records.
On July 31, 2006 the band released a video in a similar vein for "Here It Goes Again" featuring an elaborately choreographed dance on treadmills, also directed and choreographed by Trish Sie. This video was viewed by over one million people on the media site YouTube in the first six days. As of the end of April 2007, the original video upload for "Here It Goes Again" has been viewed over 17.3 million times, putting it in 9th place for the most views of any video and 4th place for most favorited video of all time on YouTube. If the statistics for all copies of the video on YouTube are tallied together, the video has been viewed much more times.
They will perform one Auckland concert only.
