Oceanics Sign Global Publishing Deal With Alberts

Gold Coast four piece Oceanics have signed a global publishing deal with Alberts this week, becoming the latest act to join the famous publishing house's rejuvenated roster.

In recent times Alberts have signed Tim Levinson (Urthboy), Josh Pyke, Gotye and San Cisco on respective publishing deals.

The band's lead singer Elliot Weston is "thrilled" about joining the roster.

"This opportunity gives us a more secure future. Now we get to concentrate on the importance of song writing rather than just surviving,” he said. “The deal with Alberts will make a massive difference for us. It'll open up so many new doors and hopefully give us the opportunity to work with some amazing musicians, producers and mentors and further our passion for making music.”

Oceanics released their second EP Bright People, which was recorded in Alberts Studios, on iTunes earlier this week.

The band will play the Hard Rock Rocks the Beach festival in Surfers Paradise this Friday 22 June, as well as the dates below.
