The JRNY Wraps Up

It’s been an incredible journey working with Five Oceans & all of our wonderful partners on this project… It’s sad for us to see it come to its final stages.

Everyone was busy getting the Ocean’s last items in order before the big release show! adHOME presented their branding, logo designs, album art, press kit & social media and development designs at the brand reveal meeting. adHOME brought to life everything Five Ocean’s had hoped for in their branding and they couldn’t have been more excited to share them with the world!

Moving along the timeline, the Prevail Media Group team alongside the Brocean’s had a moment to reflect and enjoy a 3-course lunch at Blu Duby before the release show which brings us to the big moment! With opening acts Charlie Weber FKA Major/Minor and It’s Melissa Megan Five Ocean’s rocked the house at Cowboy’s Ranch on February 3rd.

If you’re reading this, we’re all incredibly proud of where you’ve come!

This isn’t quite the end though! There are still a few things left in store. In the meantime, stay tuned for updates on the ‘On The Road’ video blog series.

The JRNY So Far

The JRNY has begun! Everyone has been hard at work since our Finalist Showcase so here’s a little look into the development that’s happened since then.

THE MUSIC

Moving along the timeline, we’ve started and completed pre–production and have currently moved onto tracking. Coming up next week, we’ll begin drum tracking.

Pre–Production (Jam Space)

THE EXPERIENCE

Once Five Oceans took home the grand prize, we had our first official meeting on March 2nd where we discussed their prizing timeline, consulted and celebrated with food and drink at Beertown Public House with Anderson Craft Ales!

The oceans pulled out their thinking caps for this one. In early April we visited Mystery Escape Rooms who contributed an escape game to our winners. After an hour of hunting and searching, they almost made it out before their time was up!

Escape Game (Mystery Escape Rooms)

Our Marketing and Creative Development partners at adHOME Creative began Five Ocean’s brand development late last week after the Brocean’s met with their team at home base. Let’s just say the band’s branding is great hands and they couldn’t agree more.
Down the road, we’ll meet again with adHOME for the band’s brand reveal meeting.. Stay tuned for that!

Head to head.. Five Oceans VS Prevail Media Group. Who will come up on top? Well, sorry Brocean’s but our LQ game is a little stronger than yours. We had the opportunity to battle it out at Laser Quest in downtown London against our hard working contest winners and let’s just say we all had a blast!

Stay tuned for the where their JRNY is onto next!
