Sound Recording Royalties for Ocean Colour Scene

Ocean Colour Scene, formed in Birmingham in 1989, rose to prominence during the Britpop era with their fusion of mod revival, psychedelic rock, and blues influences. Their breakthrough album, Moseley Shoals (1996), reached No. 2 on the UK Albums Chart and included hits like The Riverboat Song, The Day We Caught the Train, and You've Got It Bad. This success was followed by Marchin’ Already (1997), which debuted at No. 1 in the UK, surpassing Oasis’ Be Here Now. Other notable albums include One from the Modern (1999), which continued their chart success. Their track Hundred Mile High City gained further recognition when it was featured in the film Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. Their influence was solidified with a nomination for Best British Album (Moseley Shoals) and Best British Group at the 1997 Brit Awards.

The band's legacy is celebrated through multiple retrospective collections, including Yesterday Today 1992-2018, a 15-CD box set featuring all their studio albums, B-sides, and rarities. Another significant compilation, 21: The Boxset (2010), marked their 21st anniversary with 86 tracks spanning their career. Their enduring impact is evident not just in these releases but in their continued touring and the lasting appeal of their music. Ocean Colour Scene remains an essential name in British rock, particularly among fans of the Britpop movement.
