Oceanic is a versatile indie pop band based in Charlotte, NC. Heavily influenced by a
number of genres, they aim to create original music with diversity that enables
the listener to see the world in a new way. They’ve already seen many milestone
successes in their career including millions of streams, over 20 Spotify editorial
playlist placements, shared stages with bands like COIN & Vacation Manor,
noteworthy press coverage, sold-out headline shows of up to 300, a slot on
Lovin’ Life Festival this summer (alongside Noah Kahan, Post Malone, Stevie
Nicks, Maggie Rogers, Dominic Fike & more), and many other wins.
The band is comprised of three core members: Nathan, Jacob, and Sam. Nathan is the
lyricist and lead singer, Jacob styles the song with electric guitar, Sam plays bass and
arranges the music; all members contribute ideas and personality to the arrangement.
Even before Oceanic was formed, each member of the band was well-versed in
performing arts. The band works together during shows to create a high-enthusiasm
experience focused on personality, musical interest, and artistic visual effects.
Following the release of their debut album No, Human in January of 2023, the band
took their songs to the road, playing over 60 shows since, building up a cult-following
from New York, all the way down to Florida, & as far West as Nashville.
This year Oceanic is continuing to tour while working on their next record. In the Fall
of 2023, Oceanic tucked themselves away in a cabin in rural Tennessee (with select
producers, writers, & friends) and came away with some of their best music to-date.
They’ll be recording the new material this year at Gat 3 Studios (Post Malone, Dua
Lipa, Dababy), as fans are itching for new music …
Nashville-based alt-pop band VEAUX is on the rise — and they aren’t coming down any time
soon.
Formed in 2016, the trio, comprising brothers Aaron and Dominick Wagner along with Andrew
Black, has carved a unique niche in Nashville’s music scene, creating authentically alt-pop
songs that weave in elements of R&B and rock alike.
VEAUX’s journey is a testament to the power of DIY spirit and independent artistry. Operating
outside the conventional music industry pathways, they have sculpted a sound that is
authentically theirs, while paying homage to their eclectic inspirations from Pharrell to Coldplay,
and Portugal. The Man.
The trio’s music reflects their commitment to not just making good music, but crafting sonic
experiences. Frontman Aaron Wagner is celebrated as one of the top 25 songwriters in
Nashville — and it makes sense. The band consistently pens unabashed bangers that keep
listeners coming back for more (and more). This magnetic appeal is part of what cements
VEAUX’s status as one of Nashville’s must-watch bands.
Since their conception, the band has toured coast to coast, sharing the stage with the likes of
Wet Leg, Charlotte Sands, Twen, and indie rock legends Mae. VEAUX’s impact extends beyond
live performances, with millions of streams to their credit and TV placements on MTV and ABC.
As they continue to tour and release jam after jam, VEAUX stands as a beacon of what modern
alt-pop can be — diverse, dynamic, and utterly unmissable.
