Artist History It all started when Todd met Nick Sadler. Nick got Todd into rock music. See at the time Todd was listening to rap. (Eazy E, Arested Development, Dr. Dre) and Nick was into hardcore. (Marily Manson, Pantera, Coal Chamber) Todd didnt take the plunge into hardcore but he did share a great apreciation for the guitar and what an out let song writing could be. His earlier influences where 311 and sublime! Now adays everybody loves those bands. Todd soon got into punk and rock (like less than jake, and metallica) He soon had many failed attempts at maken a band with such band names as Phat love, The cuss rock allstars, and 3rd Rail. It was very hard to start a band in high school. No one was too serious about it. Corey, Todd, and Nick were all friends way back in the middle school. Nick moved to central falls (god bless his soul) He too was in many bands Now he is curently in a really good band called What feeds the fire Check them out! Corey and Todd graduated together ( a year after chris and Josh) and soon after started a band. Corey bought a drumset with little experiene and just took key to it nicely. (we all know finding a drummer in woonsocket is almost imposible, every one and there mother plays guitar tho!) They soon invited Josh into the band to sing. Todd and Josh had been talken of starting a band while he was away at college.. Todd and Josh had met a long time ago at camp home and had been real good friends up until he moved away to go to school at Umass. They then added chris who had been a mutual friend from highschool. Chris played guitar but we gave him a free bass and said Play it bitch! and so he did then... BAM! we finally have a real band. The overall all sappy but very true real reason this band happend to form was cause all of our ex g/fs who we all dissed each other for ended up screwing us over around the same time maken us all each individually crazy and now we are together.. go figure. Thanks ladies. After a few songs were together we decided we wanted to play battle of the bands at the high school. So we added Luke. Who is Joshs younger brother. He was already in the band but they werent formed very well so he said he would lend his talent to us to play the show. After the show was a huge sucess (besides the fact we didnt win!) Todd decided it would be great to have two guitarist. With a little conviencing Luke was in the band. And thats the story of Social Ocean. They have one goal, Todd and Josh made a deal if they dont play at lupos within the next 5 years they most kill themselves. Wow thats some pressure... Now kids remember.. Social Ocean is not claiming to be good. Infact we suck... enter at your own risk.
