Ocean Story Social

It starts with Josh Lake and John Haupt in the summer of 2008. They both recorded music on John's Mac mini using Garage Band*. After finishing four songs they decided to find a drummer to help them perform live. While frisbee golfing they talked about a drummer that Josh met at an Easter party in 2007. After deciding to track Micah Davison down they walked right up to him while walking in the park. It just so happened Micah was in a band the day before, they had a disagreement, and Micah was removed from his previous band only to join OSS. He booked the first show without even meeting up with the two original songwriters. Since then they have evolved from ambient/acoustic rock to alternative rock. Elliot Graham joined in early 2009 and gave the band a great indie rock sound. Since then, the band has played The Knitting Factory and many other downtown venues. Their huge fan base and long sets keep venues asking for more.
