“The roadie is booked. The destination is not certain, but I’m leaving town and there is unabated glee and expectation about the people and places I’ll visit. I’ve quit my job and thrown caution to the wind. You’re welcome to ride shotgun while I navigate the peaks of freedom and ditch this cesspool called modern life. I’m on my way. Do you want to join me?”
‘On My Way’ is the sixth single from Ocean Beach’s forthcoming album, The Long Road Home, due for release on May 17, 2025. A crunchy little pop gem, ‘On My Way’ is the second track on the album after the instrumental intro, and it sets the scene for the album’s road trip.
Ocean Beach frontman and songwriter Gary Dalhousie invites you to join him on his journey into the exciting unknown– a sort of Goodbye Pork Pie in reverse, leaving Invercargill for Auckland, the Earth for the Stars, Physicality for Spirituality, Attachment for Surrender.
The single ‘On My Way’ is out on all digital platforms on March 18th, with a celebration party at Whammy Bar, Auckland on Thursday March 20th, with good mates Silk Cut and Goodshirt’s Rodney Fisher.
Ocean Beach’s debut album The Long Road Home will be released on May 17th on Freezing Works Records.
It will be distributed on vinyl by Southbound Records, and digitally by Bigpop.
