The Ocelots are twin brothers Ashley and Brandon Watson, originally from Wexford, Ireland, and now based in Leipzig, Germany. They are known for their folk-rock sound, which is deeply rooted in harmonious vocals and storytelling. Their music often explores themes of Irish migration, love, and everyday life, with a unique blend of folk and rock elements. The duo's second album, **Everything, When Said Slowly**, is set to release in February 2025 and promises a richer, more expansive sound, produced by Cillian and Lorcan Byrne. This album follows their debut and includes singles like **About You**, which showcases their ability to craft catchy indie-pop tracks with a cynical edge.
The Ocelots' music is characterized by its use of instruments such as flutes, synths, harmonica, and harmonium, creating a dynamic and energetic sound. Their performances are often described as a blend of absurdity and sincerity, reflecting their literary-inspired musings. With a tour planned across Ireland and the UK to support their new album, The Ocelots are set to captivate audiences with their distinctive folk-rock style and engaging live shows.
