Wild Oceans

About Wild Oceans:

Inspired by the great guitar bands of the last 20 years, Wild Oceans are an alt rock band based in the South West comprised of – Jon Burnell (vocals and guitar), Mark Lee (bass and keys), Phil Thomas (lead guitar) and Conner Tregidgo (drums). Having toured extensively across the UK, Europe and US – opening for a range of bands and performing at various UK festivals as part of different outfits – this isn’t a comeback; it’s a reinvention. The members of Wild Oceans earned their stripes in alternative projects, building their reputations as dynamic performers and songwriters. Now, they’ve come together as a formation of the very best: a new band rooted in experience, driven by sound and inspired by the greats. In a rehearsal room with the amps cranked loud, a collection of demos grew into something undeniable – and Wild Oceans was formed. With guitars at the forefront driving the sound, the band caught the attention of legendary producer John Cornfield (Oasis/Muse/ Supergrass/Stone Roses) who came on board to produce their forthcoming new album at the iconic Sawmills Studios in early 2025. Wild Oceans have honed a sound that’s gritty, heavy and melodic. Their lyrics weave a tapestry of life, love, loss and addiction through big riffs and memorable chorus’.
