Oceans are a five piece shoegaze band from Naarm/Melbourne, Australia. With inspiration from ambient, new wave and 90’s Dream Pop, the heart of Oceans’ sound is a dedication to experimentation and timbre .
Across Oceans’ breakthrough EP’s Come So Far, their collaborative effort with UK’s self-titled EP Wilt and debut LP “Dreamers in Dark Cities” they’ve landed support from Spotify’s Just Chill and Night Shift editorial playlists, features from Beat Magazine, Backseat Mafia and Trouble Juice, and played international shows at the New Colossus Showcase in New York City in early 2024 alongside tours of Australia & New Zealand in 2023.
Oceans return with a new brand of sonic experimentation in their new 10 track Sophomore LP set for release in October 2024. Recorded and produced with legendary Australian producer Lindsay Gravina (Rowland S. Howard, Magic Dirt), the LP draws on the vibrancy of 90s Dream Pop and electronic drum machines to explore a more uptempo and colourful approach to shoegaze.
The album features heavy songwriting contributions from both leading songwriters, Thomas and Mayzie Lee as the band further broadens their sonic horizons.
Oceans are Thomas Lee (guitar, vocals), Mayzie Lee (vocals), Sam Black (rhythm guitar), David Escott (bass), and Michael Fox (drums).
