Ozean were a bay area California band from the early 1990’s. As bands like RIDE, Slowdive, Lush, and My Bloody Valentine began coming to prominence in the British scene, bands like Ozean took notice state-side and were highly influenced. Ozean has just recently resurfaced with a long lost three song EP having been found. Their Cocteau Twin-esque dreaminess and their overall shoegaze sound make them an early pioneer in the genre on the North American continent along with bands such as Orange. Eric Shea and Lisa Baer, members of Ozean, were kind enough to answer some of my questions. Included in the interview is also Michael Padilla who originally recorded the demo tracks.
