Listen to Ocean Hope’s first single off upcoming debut album Rolling Days

03 May 2018

Greek composer and producer Serafim Tsotsonis, who conquered our ears with his solo compositions, is also one half of Ocean Hope with his sister Angeliki. After releasing Chamber Dreams, a 4-track EP, in 2015, the brother-sister duo have announced the release of their debut full length album, Rolling Days. With a refreshing new energy, as the press release describes, the songs on the new album “are now filtered through propulsive rhythms, kaleidoscopic textures, psychedelic explorations, and a more urgent tone that shines both musically and lyrically.”

Rolling Days arrives on May 25th through Hush Hush Records and ahead of it, the pair have shared the first single ‘Devotion’, serving as a wonderful and enigmatic aural teaser. Take a listen now.
