Northern Beaches powerhouses Ocean Alley return with the smooth new single Tombstone, infusing their summery, psychedelic sound with a sprinkling of funk, soul and classic rock.
Recorded at The Grove Studios and produced by longtime friend and collaborator Callum Howell, the passionate and heartfelt ‘Tombstone’ is quietly self assured; diving headfirst into bright, psychedelic tones and a floating melody, creating an intoxicating combination pairing Baden Donegal’s buttery vocals with the group’s signature epic harmonies. The track reminisces about a place that was once the perfect respite, however is now just a wasteland, and the upbeat drums and endlessly catchy chorus juxtapose the sombre lyrical tone.
Ocean Alley also have a very busy start to the new year with upcoming appearances at Bay Dreams Festival and stadium supports for Six60 in New Zealand, plus all stops on the Laneway Festival national run still to come.
