With their modern indie-rock style, Oakridge Ave. evokes the familiarities of the genre, while adding in hints of pop and grunge, creating a unique sound of sun-soaked rock thoroughly leaden with deep textures and ear candy. With Patterson's melodic vocal hooks and stacked choruses, the band's lyrics are familiar but distinct, establishing themes that tap into deeper questions of humanity and what binds people together despite our differences. Through the band’s strong musical craftsmanship, with Draper’s masterful guitar riffs, Kenny’s driving bass, and Stewart-Juby’s heavy percussion, Oakridge Ave. creates a vivid and fresh sound with maximum colour saturation.
In 2018, Oakridge Ave. embarked on their first-ever tour of Eastern Canada, playing cities like Montreal, Charlottetown, Saint John and Halifax. After returning to Kingston, the band began work on their debut full-length album, Endless Nights, with help from producer and Canadian rock legend Ian Blurton.
In the fall of 2021, the group started work on their sophomore album 'Wind Up ' Let Go' which was produced by JUNO winner Hawksley Workman, and was released on September 15, 2023. The new record marks a new and exciting sound for the band, pushing their boundaries as musicians and chasing a unique and powerful indie-pop aesthetic.
