The Ocean Blue

Getting their start as teenagers in the late ‘80s in Hershey, PA, The Ocean Blue released their self-titled debut on the famed Sire Records that launched many of their musical heroes. Embraced by MTV and college radio, the band quickly made their mark on the onset of the Alternative/Modern Rock scene. Their early singles “Between Something And Nothing” and “Drifting, Falling” notched them Top Ten hits on College and Modern Rock radio, setting in motion a run of four successful major label albums, including Cerulean (1991), Beneath the Rhythm and Sound (1993), and See The Ocean Blue (1996). They left the majors in the late 90s and released a string of beloved independent releases including Davy Jones Locker (2000), Waterworks (2003), Ultramarine (2013) and Kings and Queens/Knaves and Thieves (2019). With eight albums and several EPs under their belt, the band continues to perform and record, with work underway on a new album.In 2024, the band will be performing their first two albums in full - The Ocean Blue and Cerulean - over two consecutive nights in cities throughout the U.S.
