OCEANSOUL
"Two roads diverged in a wood, and I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference." (Robert Frost) What is OCEANSOUL? Epic. Anthemic. High Energy Eastern Rock. Pop/Dance sensibilities... OCEANSOUL travels the path less taken by exploring a new hybrid style composed of rock, sitar, and anthemic dance melodies which will uplift you to a higher state. High energy eastern rock guitar riffs inspired mainly by Ravi Shankar, The Cult, Led Zeppelin, & Velvet Underground. A duo backed by a powerful Electronic Rythm Section, this band is on a path of their own creation... www.myspace.com/oceansoulmusic
