Orson was a Brit Award-winning American rock band from Hollywood, California, formed in 2000. ==Career== Originally the band called itself Halogen. Their self-financed first album, ''Bright Idea'', released by Mercury Records in 2006, was produced in Los Angeles by Noah Shain and achieved chart success in the UK with the first single, "No Tomorrow".
