Exit Ocean by New Vega

This is New Vega's freshman release on WHOA Label.
The Dayton Ohio four piece, New Vega, brings the golden age of melodic rock full circle with each member adorning the driving sound with their uniquely delicate musicality. Their first release on the WHOA Label, Exit Ocean, is brimming with vibrant hooks and aching melodies.

Formed by both friendship and musicianship in late 2008 in a makeshift attic studio in downtown Dayton, the boys immediately fell into a pattern of playing out and laying down demos. That studio evolved into the 1300 square foot recording studio built by the band to record both their self-titled 3 song E.P. and full length release, Tempo, which taps into the atmospheric power of MUSE while holding close to the accessible pop edge of Coldplay. A 2011 OURVINYL article about the release of Tempo closed by saying "after listening to 'Tempo' on repeat for two days straight, this is a band that one simply just does not get sick of listening to."

Alex Rundle, Chance Campbell, Adam Sabin, and Zach Sabin all come from a diverse musical background encompassing jazz, rock, folk, pop and classical music. Each played in numerous bands, ensembles, and academic endeavors before finally starting a project in which they could explore and express everything learned thus far. The band was selected to play Mid Point Music Festival in 2009 and South Wind Music Festival recently in 2011. They have been featured in the Dayton City Paper as well as the Dayton Daily News and Cincinnati's Citybeat. They have appeared live on "Kaleidoscope", a radio show on NPR 91.3 WYSO, three times.

A mix of writing, playing shows both at home and abroad, recording and mixing, has been New Vega's MO since the bands inception. This passion for their craft is evident in their touring/press schedule but is also indicative of their live show and recordings. They are 100% present within each moment of each song, dedicated to bringing the best out of themselves and their material.
