Oats is a one-man band based in London. His obsession with music started in his early years after being exposed to various strands of Psych, and the spine-chilling soundtracks of Horror films. He started experimenting with music at a young age with his elder siblings, recording sounds onto old analog equipment found at car boot sales. Since then, he has continued his musical journey in his bedroom studio, capturing and mixing all the sounds which are created there. The neo-psych sounds of the forever curious Oats (member of Circus Cannon) first emerged in 2018 with his luminous EP Candle Fingers. His craft extends from the bizarre to the natural, but keeps to his tradition of experimenting with unlikely sounds. He released his second EP Good Thyme on Custom Made Music in 2019. "The latest and third release is the EP Glow Box - a sixteen-minute dream vacation between (Neo-)Psychedelic Pop, mesmerizing Dream Pop and fuzzy Shoegaze. Oats plays, loops, alters and interconnects analog and digital instruments to create a multi-layer sphere of dreamy Pop and Rock music." - MangoRave Reviews In the early spring of 2021 he released his single Green People. An acoustic guitar-driven psyched out folk song with hushed whispery vocals and samples of sea creature-like sounds, swimming in the background. It features finger-picked airy-sounding guitars and harmonised melodies that carry the song throughout.
