Editor's note

Oceans, a band with a complicated 2010s run

They broke through with 'Scars To Your Beautiful' in 2015 and kept releasing albums through 2020.

For a sense of their sound, 'Scars To Your Beautiful' is the obvious starting point. 'Descansar' and 'Into The Void' from their later work hold up, too.

Their debut single 'Scars To Your Beautiful' got them noticed, and they put out three albums in five years. Songs like 'Hope' and 'Cold Ain't For Me' show the kind of earnest, melodic rock they were making. The band also dealt with public controversy around their lead singer in 2017, which adds a layer to their story.

They started with a self-titled album in 2015 featuring 'Scars To Your Beautiful.' Two more records followed, 'In Pieces' in 2017 and 'Losing Sleep' in 2020. The lineup included James Bagshaw on vocals until allegations surfaced in 2017, though he later returned.

Oceans is a band that gained attention with their 2015 song 'Scars To Your Beautiful,' which featured Anna Murphy on vocals. The track appeared on their self-titled debut album that same year. They followed it with two more albums, 'In Pieces' in 2017 and 'Losing Sleep' in 2020.

Their music includes songs like 'Descansar,' 'Hope,' and 'Cold Ain't For Me.' The band's lineup has included James Edward Bagshaw on lead vocals, Tom Baxter on guitar and vocals, Sam Mathurin on bass and vocals, Chris Fry on drums, and Adam Christian on keyboards and backing vocals.

In 2017, James Bagshaw faced allegations of sexual misconduct that led to his temporary departure from the band. The allegations were later dropped. Some critics have questioned the band's approach to diversity and inclusivity in their work.
