Sound the Ocean – 7 music teachers by day, 7 musicians by night (or whenever it’s show time). SEVEN. That equates to 1x Beatles + 1x Jimi Hendrix Experience. Or, if you prefer, 1x Simon & Garfunkel + 1x Rolling Stones. Not that they’re yesterday’s news – no, no, they’re as current as Kim Kardashian’s latest tweet. Seven’s a big number for a band & that’s because these guys (& one gal) think big. Their band name has “ocean” in it for goodness sake (ocean not specified but many analysts point to the Pacific seen as they come from New Zealand). Hail from a small country? They’ll take the world thanks! Like to keep things low key? They’ll make a big song & dance about it! & big songs they do make. First single, “Ghost Town”, is big enough to scare any ghost from any town – not that it’s frightening – rather it’s bound to appeal to those who like to sing along (& it’s common knowledge that ghosts do not). Hold on for second single, “Hold On” – it’s a bouncy number. Third single, “Spring”, needs the three other seasons to contain it… you’ll be singing it all year round. & the title-track to their debut album, Wait For the Morning (2015), will prompt every holder of a cellphone to wave ‘em high, to & fro at their live show (where their sound is magnified even more). So sound the alarm & wake the kids, Sound the Ocean have surfed up on a sound wave near you.
