About the Band
Our Story
Ocean Breeze started in 2019 as a group of friends jamming in a beachside garage in Santa Cruz, California. What began as casual weekend sessions quickly turned into something bigger — a shared vision to create music that captures the feeling of being on the coast.
Our sound pulls from indie rock, surf punk, and dream pop, blending reverb-soaked guitars with driving rhythms and laid-back melodies. Whether we're playing a packed venue or a bonfire on the beach, we bring the same energy — raw, honest, and free.
Since our debut EP Shoreline in 2020, we've released two full-length albums, toured up and down the West Coast, and built a community of fans who share our love for music, the ocean, and good vibes. We're just getting started.
