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 heroes in the U.S., including the Smiths and Echo & the Bunnymen. Embraced by college radio and MTV, the band quickly made their mark with early singles “Between Something And Nothing”, “Drifting, Falling” and “Ballerina Out of Control” which notched them Top Ten hits on Modern Rock Radio. Early success set 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), followed by a string of beloved independent releases, 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 - The Ocean Blue and Cerulean - in their entirety over two consecutive nights in cities throughout the U.S.
