In episode #71 of The XS Noize Podcast, Mark Millar catches up with Ocean Colour Scene singer Simon Fowler and drummer Oscar Harrison about their extensive acoustic tour for Spring 2022.
Following Ocean Colour Scene's sell-out UK tour in 2021, Simon and Oscar will play relatively intimate seated venues, creating the perfect stages for acoustic performances of all their big hits and anthems, including The Riverboat Song, The Circle, Traveller's Tune, Hundred Mile High City and The Day We Caught The Train.
In their first podcast interview, Simon and Oscar talk about the upcoming shows, their Britpop heyday and much more.

Forming 32 years ago, OCS spent six years fine-tuning their sound before lighting up the Britpop party with three Top 5 albums; 1996's 'Moseley Shoals', 1997's 'Marchin' Already' and 1999's 'One From The Modern'. The band has also achieved seventeen Top 40 singles, including a staggering run of nine successive Top 20 singles and a mantelpiece full of awards.
As with all the best groups, behind the swagger and style were great songs, with words and melodies that found their way into the public's head and heart. It's now time to hear these songs again, stripped back but every bit as brilliant.
