About Me

.. ....
With comparisons to Led Zeppelin, Coldplay, The Eagles, Incubus, The Police, and various other artists, it's no wonder why Ocean has exploded onto the local music scene. Their fan base is continually growing and so is their musical arsenal of ideas and creativity. Ocean is a different breed of music to the local scene but that doesn't stop them. If you get a chance to see them do it because you will be sold after one show.
They have been on many local radio stations including 100.3 and Magic 105 (RIP), Morning News shows (channel 4), The Arkansas Times, Nightflying, Internet radio, and other magazines and newspapers all over arkansas! Some of the places they play include West End, Juanita's, Sticky Fingerz, Vino's, 2720, and many others. They have also participated and placed in several Battle of the Bands competitions; this includes winning 3 consecutive rounds and making the national finals in Bodog Battle of the Bands. They are branching out to play in surrounding states so if you want them to come play for you in Louisiana, Texas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Tennessee or anywhere else just let us know. You can book us for shows, conventions, parties, or whatever else you can come up with.
Ocean has established a very interactive fan-base of people who love to have a good time and they would love for you to be a part of it! Thanks!!
