- Release Notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -

   Formed in the summer of 2006, Ocoai have quickly garnered the praise of their
   peers as well as a devoted following of fans.

   Guitarist (and engineer/producer ) Travis Kammeyer and drummer, Tim Smith met
   in the small but immensely talented music scene of Johnson City, TN. Upon
   discovering similar interests, the two formed their first band together, 24
   Hour Front Desk in early 2005. After 24HFD dissolved, Kammeyer and Smith
   wanted to try something different. Kammeyer who had shared guitar and vocal
   duties in 24HFD, wanted to shift focus from vocals all together. Thus Ocoai
   was born with one mission: to be the loudest and heaviest band around.

   Without a vocalist or for that matter a lyricist, the table was wide open for
   musical development. To complete the line up, guitarist Joe Armstrong and
   bassist Bo Dugger were brought on board. The varying musical influences of
   the individuals serve as a catalyst for developing songs that have a sort of
   push-and-pull effect on the audience. Ambient guitars swell into crunching
   riffs while sparse back beat rhythms develop into a tsunami-like driving
   force, until every accent is pounded into your brain.

   After a year and half of playing shows and recording more than an albums
   worth of songs that were passed amongst friends, shared on social networking
   sites or self-packaged and sold at shows, Ocoai decided it was time to
   deliver a proper record. Recording in the winter and spring of 2008, Ocoai
   would assemble the seven songs that make up their first full-length record,
   Breatherman (comprising over 50 minutes worth of music).

   When seeing Ocoai live, one thing is clear; their mission to be the loudest
   and heaviest remains but has since expanded to include a desire to deliver a
   start to finish musical journey thru emotions that are as varied as the band
   members themselves.
