The Ocean Coast's Premier Funk Band

  Ocean Blvd began as a Coos Bay, Oregon jam session drawing upon many top flight musicians from the Bay Area, eventually performing its inaugural public gig in March of 2022, and quickly becoming the Oregon Coast’s premier instrumental funk band. Ocean Blvd is in demand all over the Pacific Northwest and has performed at festivals in Oregon and Washington including Mannifest; The Bay Area Fun Fest; Coos Bay’s Blackberry Arts Festival; and Music on the Bay Festival; as well as at clubs, restaurants, breweries, and at private and corporate events around the region. 

The music is a powerful mixture of funk classics and funk-infused originals. The band’s incredibly tight rhythm section, crisp, powerful horn duo, and stellar musicianship make Ocean Blvd the band most likely to shake your booty. 

Members include band leader Andy Price (bass), Tim Fields (drums), Seth Kirby (electric mandolin & percussion), Gary Johnson (guitar), Michael Skelly (organ/piano), and The Riptide Horns: Justin Partney (trumpet), and Mike Stinnett (saxophone).
