OUR OCEANS have announced a new album!

Titled Right Here, Right Now, the upcoming album from the Dutch progressive rock trio is the follow-up to 2020’s While Time Disappears, and is scheduled to be releasd in October this year, via Long Branch Records.

Alongside the announcement of the new album, OUR OCEANS have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Golden Rain.

“After finishing [previous album] While Time Disappears, I knew immediately that I wanted to create something lighter and more uplifting,” comments band leader Tymon Kruidenier. “Golden Rain was the first song I wrote with that intention, and it perfectly captured the vibe I was aiming for. It was also the song we jammed out the most as a band, not only to refine the arrangement, but also to develop a production template for the rest of the album. With that in mind, it felt only natural for it to be the album’s opening track.”

“I’m incredibly proud of our previous album, but it’s a bit of a bitter pill to swallow,” continues singer and guitarist Tymon Kruidenier. “This time around, I also felt the need to return to the creative philosophy behind the first OUR OCEANS album: simply letting things flow. Instead of steering the process or clinging to preconceived ideas of what the music should be, I wanted to trust in an open and unrestricted creative approach, allowing the songs to take shape naturally. It all started with the chorus for what became the album’s first track, Golden Rain. From there, everything came together in what felt like one effortless flow state that lasted for a month or two. I think this resulted in a collection of songs that feel balanced and cohesive, yet diverse and playful.”
