OceanState

OceanState, as a whole, began in the summer of 2004. The quintet was formed from the passion and love of the same music. They have played in over 60 venues across the east coast, from coffee shops to larger venues such as Lupo's Heartbreak Hotel in Providence, The Palladium in Worcester MA, and The Hard Rock Cafe in Montreal Canada. With there spiradic venue hopping, OceanState over the past few years has created a large fan base throughout the New England and East Coast areas. Over the years their music has matured and become more centralized on worldly issues & ideas at hand. They try to write music that hopefully can make a difference not only for an individual but on a societal basis as well. They have joined the stage with such talents as Baylock, Sucka Brown, On the Drop, Roots Down Below, Orange Jam Conspiracy, Formal Action, Multiverse, Suspect, State Radio, Adam Ezra Group, Vega, Jon Tierney, Sweetfist, Plan 17, Street Credit, 3 Feet Short, Sound System, Someday Providence, M-80, Fistful of Steel, As Fast As, Parker House & Theory, Chachi, DJ Therion, DJ BladeMon, Braddigan, Badfish, and many others. It's hard to pigeon-hole OceanState's style, but whatever it may be, one thing is for certain, OceanState brings high energy and positive vibes to every show.
