With no congress to the Ocean Blue, although their list -- the title of the Ocean Blue's moment album -- and swirling dreamlike guitars evoke otherwise, Cerulean is a similar American gem in awe of the pretty atmospherics and aeriform stomp of English post-punk icons like Echo & the Bunnymen and the Chameleons. Cerulean is the inspiration of iI high school friends, Rick Bolander (vocals, guitar) and Mike McCabe (drums). Separated for basketball team years, the deuce all over up meeting once again while visiting household in New York. They got together in Los Angeles and started writing songs, functional on them for a class until they met manufacturer John Chamberlin. The duet then fagged six-spot months recording their debut album, Skylight, released in January 1999. Adding bassist Roger Marinelli, the group penetrated the L.A. golf club circuit and were invited to do at the North by Northwest music festival in Portland, OR. However, Marinelli left field the band not long thereafter, going Cerulean in limbo res publica until the chemical group emerged again in 2001, this time with a second guitarist, Noel Kelly, and a new studio apartment bassist, Will Bongiovanni. The revised lineup recorded Brighter/Still. In 2004, Cerulean released the EP Fractions, receiving praise from critics for its sublime pop.
