Oblio

Oblio is an alt-rock trio from Pasadena, CA. Bandmates Alex Strahle, Blake Russell & Free Hallas draw their sound from a wide range of influences, including The Replacements, Pixies, Weezer, The Breeders, & Elliott Smith. Oblio has toured nationally, been featured on numerous notable indie-rock radio programs, and frequents many local LA venues. Blake & Free have toured as drummers with the popular UK rock outfit The Big Pink. Alex is also a founding member and lead guitarist for SoCal rock band SVB, and previously worked with Blake in the band Dead Ball Era.

Oblio has its roots in the local LA scene — the band frequently records and produces music for other local artists, and assists other bands with booking and hosting local DIY shows. The band hosts a one-day-only local music festival called “Oblio’s Pointless Fest”.

“Batting Cages“ is their latest single from their new 7 inch “Batting Cages / Quiet Song” – Written, performed, produced, recorded, mixed, & mastered by the band. The song blasts out grunge-era sounds into a furious two minute punk tune. - Available now as a free download on Bandcamp, Soundcloud, & Noisetrade (Out soon on iTunes, Spotify & more)!
