Kingston’s Oakridge Ave. are quickly making a name for themselves as one of the region’s hottest emerging bands, featuring a lineup of four dynamic musicians— Harrison Stewart-Juby, Thomas Draper, Joe Kenny, and Sean Patterson.
While adding in hints of new wave and grunge, Oakridge Ave. creates a unique sound of sun-soaked rock thoroughly laden with deep textures and ear candy. With Patterson's melodic vocal hooks and stacked choruses, the band's lyrics are familiar but distinct, establishing themes that tap into deeper questions of humanity and what binds people together despite our differences. Through their strong musical craftsmanship, Oakridge Ave. aims to create a vivid and fresh sound with maximum colour saturation, blending contemporary fidelity with classic, timeless writing.
Their new record 'Wind Up/Let Go' (produced by Hawksley Workman) marks a new and exciting sound for the band, pushing their boundaries as musicians and chasing a unique and powerful indie-pop aesthetic.
