Embraced by MTV and alternative radio, the band quickly made their mark with early singles “Between Something And Nothing,” “Drifting, Falling” and “Ballerina Out of Control,” which notched them Top Ten hits on College and Billboard’s Modern Rock Radio charts. Early success set in motion a run of four successful major label albums, including follow up Cerulean (1991), Beneath the Rhythm and Sound (1993), and See The Ocean Blue (1996). The band continued with string of beloved independent releases in the 2000s, including Davy Jones Locker (2000), Waterworks (2003), Ultramarine (2013) and Kings and Queens/Knaves and Thieves (2019). With eight albums and several EPs under their belt, the band continues to perform and record, with work underway on a new album and shows in cities throughout the U.S. in 2025. The Ocean Blue (pictured above L-R) is David Schelzel (vocals, guitar), Bobby Mittan (bass), Peter Anderson (drums), and Oed Ronne (guitar and keyboards).

The Ocean Blue Biography
The Ocean Blue's debut record on the famed Sire Records label in 1989 seemed to summarize the best of the closing musical decade. The band of four teenagers from Hershey, Pennsylvania quickly achieved widespread acclaim and radio & MTV airplay, with top 10 Modern Rock/College Radio hits like Between Something and Nothing and Drifting, Falling. They followed their debut release with the subtle and atmospheric Cerulean, which included perhaps their most beloved song, Ballerina Out of Control, and followed that with their highest charting pop album Beneath the Rhythm and Sound and the single Sublime, featuring a video of the band in the sublime landscape of Iceland. After band's fourth record for Mercury/PolyGram, See The Ocean Blue, the band left the majors and did several independent releases in the 2000s. In 2013, after much anticipation, the band released their first full length record in over 10 years, Ultramarine, on Korda Records, a Minneapolis-based label cooperative label the band helped launch that same year. The record was a welcome return for fans of the band and a younger generation of fans, and garnered widespread praise as one of their very best albums. This summer, the band releases their first new full length album in over 6 years.
