UK Pop-Punkers Ocasan to Release Debut Album in October

Northampton-based pop-punk trio Ocasan are to release their eponymous debut album on 3rd October. The album will be preceded by a single entitled ‘Not All Heroes Wear Capes’ on 19th September – watch a live video of the track below. The band have also announced a couple of dates in London next month.

The debut Ocasan album was produced by Romesh Dodanga, who has previously worked with Funeral for a Friend, Kids in Glass Houses and Manic Street Preachers. Frontman Nick Burns, bassist Rich Webb and drummer Luke O’Donnell formed Ocasan in Bath in 2009.

Speaking about the album, Rich said: “We wanted to write fantastic songs that told stories and kept you interested from the very first drum beat to the last chord. Some are very accurate to our personal experiences and some have a little artistic license. We wanted the world to pay attention to this one. The first album, we all agreed, had to be big, loud and shiny. We completed what we set out to do and are very proud of it.”

See below for a live video of the forthcoming single ‘Not All Heroes Wear Capes’ and a hilarious cover version of the Martin Solveig and Dragonette dance hit ‘Hello’.
