“We are frothing to be back in North America in October to finish what we started this year. Our Lonely Diamond tour will be visiting the west coast and Texas with 9 shows in Cali and plenty more scattered around! We are also visiting the states of Washington, Oregon, Utah and Colorado to perform a mix of old classics, plenty of Lonely Diamond tracks and even a bunch of new music you’ve probably never heard before! Can’t wait to see you all there!”
The October tour dates follow the band’s forthcoming summer tour, which includes shows in New York, Chicago, Nashville, Washington DC, and other US cities. Ocean Alley also recently released their single “Deepest Darkness,” a love song about how someone can bring the best out of you, even in your darkest moments. The track features the hallmarks that have long-defined Ocean Alley’s psychedelic-leaning sound — from intoxicating echoing vocals to layered instrumentation, laden with fuzz and reverb. The band’s latest effort dials up the ferocity across each chorus, continually increasing the crunch and intensity.
Since the release of their ARIA Gold-certified breakthrough Chiaroscuro (2018) which saw the band take the #1 spot in triple j’s Hottest 100 of 2018 for their double platinum smash ‘Confidence’, the six-piece have performed at major festivals including Reading & Leeds (UK), Splendour In The Grass (AUS) and Sziget (HU). The band’s last album, 2020’s Loney Diamond, debuted at #3 on the ARIA charts, received Gold certification on five singles and was nominated for 2 ARIA Awards. The album was praised by many including NME who said “‘Lonely Diamond’ is a monster of a record that manages to inspire excitement at every one of its dizzying turns,” and Under The Radar who said “Ocean Alley breathes enough life into the mix of vintage styles that it never stops being a trip worth taking.” Ocean Alley’s evolution has been driven by an endless pursuit to push their sound and abilities to new limits. Operating as a proudly independent band, their output has always been underscored by a refreshingly chilled authenticity and relatability that has seen them achieve more than 500 million catalog streams.
