Jazz-heads and theory-nerds will be delighted by the detailed arrangements put forth by Specific Ocean. The band draws influence from Jazz, Alternative, Hip-Hop, and Funk, offering audiences high-energy live performances tinged with a heavy dose of improvisation. In this conversation singer and keyboardist Camilla Vaitaitis and guitar/bassist Alec Wenzel reflect on collaborative songwriting, transitioning from the conservatory to the music scene, and navigating patriarchy in music.
