Uncharted Shores take that responsibility very seriously, and they don’t ever tread the same ground twice. On their second self-titled album, the California quintet strikes pop rock gold. Infusing elements of alternative, indie, and electronic music into their sound, the group crafts eleven irresistible and invigorating songs. Uncharted Shores–Sean O’Leary [Vocals, Guitar, Keys], Scott Nagareda [Bass], Thomas Hall [Guitar], Skylar Campbell [Drums], Klaus Campbell [Lead Guitar]–might just take you some place you’ve never been.
In 2009, while still in high school, O’Leary founded the group. Releasing a five-song demo around his school, the budding songwriter started to turn heads immediately. He tapped his classmate Nagareda to play bass, and they began gigging locally under their original moniker, One Direction. Even though they independently released their full-length debut, The Light (which reached #48 on the Billboard “Heatseekers” chart) in 2011, the first couple of years were far from easy and breezy for what would become Uncharted Shores.
“Early last year we were drawn into a high profile legal dispute with a British Boy band,” O’Leary says. “We reformed and regrouped, and are pushing forward harder than ever. Through that process, the band washed upon a new field. It’s uncharted and we’re ready to map it out as we go along.”
