Osees Formerly 'Oh Sees' Are A Band From San Francisco California USA. The Group Began As An Outlet For John Dwyer To Release His Instrumental Experimental Home Recordings And Over The Course Of Several Albums Evolved Into A Full Band. The Band Is Noted For Both Its Prolific Album Releases Energetic Live Shows And Their Whimsical Visual Aesthetic That Juxtaposes Cartoon Imagery And Horror. The Band Has Changed Its Name Several Times Being Known As Orinoka Crash Suite OCS Orange County Sound The Ohsees Thee Oh Sees. Some Say John Dwyer Of Coachwhips Pink & Brown OCS Landed Yikes Burmese The Hospitals Sword & Sandals Superpit The Drums The Trawgs Zeigenbock Kopf And Dig That Body Up It's Alive! Is In Thee Oh Sees And He Seems To Be Making This Band The Most Serious Project. He's Done Everything From Noise To Death Metal To Punk And Now Thee Oh Sees. Thee Oh Sees Are No Doubt The Lightest Of His Excursions But In Contrast To The Rest Of His Resume One Could Surmise That There Are Significant Reasons For The Change. Thee Oh Sees Have A Lo-Fi Electric-Acoustic Sound That's Usually Soaked In Reverb Making It As If You Can Hear And See The Exact Room They Recorded In. It Creates A Very Distinct Mood That Seems To Fit Their Style Lyrics And Melodies. What Most People Focus On Is That Mr. Dwyer Is In The Band. While It's Certainly A Notable Quality The Recent Band Members Bring So Much More To The Table. The Earliest Recordings Are Dwyer's Solo Recordings Mostly Single Instrument/vocal Ditties That You Can Hear Him Working Out. They're An Intimate Portrait Of John But Without The Recent Material The Portrait Would Simply Be Incomplete. Thee Oh Sees Don't Subscribe To Any One Style. With The Addition Of Brigid Dawson Petey Dammit And A Rotating Cast Of Drummers The Sound Has Grown Into The Landscape That One Man Couldn't Create Alone. Brigid's Soprano Voice Brings An Almost Hauntingly Sensitive Aspect To The Lyrics And Melodies While Petey And Mike's Pounding And Insistent Backline And Additional Drums From Lars Finberg Of The Intelligence On Recent Recordings Complete The Frame In Its Entirety. Their Energetic Sweat-Laden Shows Coupled With Their Prolific Recording Schedule Has Garnered Them A Growing Dedicated Fan Base. The Catalog That This Band Has Put Together Is Growing And Growing Albeit Under Several Different Monikers And Several Different Labels. In 2017 It Was Announced That The Band Would Change Its Name To Simply 'Oh Sees' In November Of 2019 The Band Announced That They Would Be Changing Their Name Yet Again To Simply 'Osees' read less
