Norfolk, VA, USA Jesse Hill - guitar and vocals Nate Crawford - guitar Josh Whittle - drums Ben Crumrine - bass guitar Josh Bogart - guitar Over the Ocean was founded by a group of four musical aesthetes from Virginia Beach, Virginia in 2008. With a commitment to crafting some of the most honest and meaningful music possible, they were not content to simply play music that would fit as background noise on an iPhone somewhere. From the very beginning, Over the Ocean set out to create music that stops listeners in their tracks.
