Nashville future-soul group Oracle Blue blends elements of Neo-Soul, electro-pop and Black American Music to create a newfangled soundscape with a sullen danceability. The band is fronted by producers Liz Kelley (guitar, vocals) and Zach Douglas (trumpet, playback engineer), and is rounded out with a rotating cast in the rhythm section. Influences range from Hiatus Kaiyote to Sylvan Esso, while creating a sonic culture that is uniquely their own. The group began as a student jazz combo that received a DownBeat Student Music Award, performed at Montreux, Umbria and Vienne jazz festivals in Europe, and shared the university stage with artists such as Victor Wooten, Jeff Coffin & Steve Bailey. Occasions of note since entering the professional sphere include an opening set for Nate Smith, multiple opening performances for Lalah Hathaway, endorsements from Traveler Guitar and Aston Microphones, a performance at NAMM, a European tour, and a recent listing on DownBeat's "What to Stream This Week".
Between independently touring, producing, managing, and even a bit of merchandise manufacturing, Kelley and Douglas’ fingerprints can be seen on each thoughtful step of their creative process. Oracle Blue’s releases include their first single “Laundry”, their debut album Gilded Kingdoms (2018), and recent single “Herbal Tea” which features bassist MonoNeon (Prince, Mac Miller, Ne-Yo). The band will spend the summer of 2022 touring from LA to NYC then Nantucket to Key West, and will ring in the fall by putting the final touches on their sophomore album.
