Well somewhere near the front of the stage sits a mysterious man, whose charm is only outweighed by his good looks. In front of him is a microphone that he serenades melodies into to make all the ladies swoon. His name is Tom and his vocals are remeniscent to an angel playing a harp on a hillside of flowers. To his left sits the young prodigy guitarist, who plucks some strings and occasionally chimes in with his own serenades. His name is Anthony. Together they make up the two piece acousitc/indie outfit known as You Versus the Ocean. Their job is simple.......they get paid to make girls panic. Enough said.
Influences
Dashboard Confessional, Colin Hay, Kevin Devine, Brand New, Death Cab for Cutie, A Mover, A Fighter, A Morning Light, Blink182, John Mayer, Bloc Party, Newton Faulkner, and the Beatles
You Versus the Ocean centers around a mysterious young singer named Tom and an amazingly skilled guitarist named Anthony. We are currently booking shows up and down California and have a CD written that we will start recording shortly and release the summer of 2009 or perhaps sooner. It is entitled "The Ways of Western Hearts" and let me tell you, if heaven had a soundtrack, this would be it.
Feel free to keep checking in for updates and chat with us anytime.
much love, Tom And Anthony

my other guitarist lost interest in playing and i've been looking for another guitarist. I could play the show solo but i'd perfer not to. but if I can't find one in a few weeks I try to set it up anyhow. I don't suppose you guys know anyone who might be interested in playing guitar with me do you?
