North Atlantic Drift

Ocean Colour Scene

A maritime-influenced collection of soulful indie rock. Warm Hammond organs and jangling guitars create a wistful, rain-soaked atmosphere of coastal reflection.

It's like a rainy weekend at a British seaside town but with better guitars and more soul.

A weathered, maritime-themed collection that balances mid-tempo soulful rock with a persistent, wistful melancholy.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The driving, urgent acoustic strumming that opens I Just Need Myself setting a surprisingly tense tone

The expansive, swirling organ solo in the title track that mimics the movement of ocean currents

The haunting, slow-burn build of When Evil Comes as it stretches into a six-minute psychedelic finale
