About our guest artist: Oshima Brothersoshimabrothers.com

Oshima Brothers' magnetic sibling sound and contagious joy result from a lifetime of making music together.  Raised in a musical family in rural Maine, the brothers have honed a harmony-rich blend of contemporary folk and acoustic pop.  On stage, Sean and Jamie create a surprisingly full sound with dynamic vocals, electric and acoustic guitars, octave bass, loops, and percussion.  The brothers live in Maine but are often on the road performing, producing music videos, and dancing.

The older brother, Sean is the band’s songwriter, publicist, business manager, stylist, and chef.  He sings and plays rhythm guitar, harmonica, and cajón.  At a show, you’re sure to hear his warm vocals and soaring falsetto.

Consumed by music, Jamie is the band’s producer, recording/audio engineer, filmmaker, and part-time songwriter.  In addition to singing, he plays electric guitar, bass, drums, keyboard, mandolin, banjo, and fiddle.  He has been recording songs and making videos in his home studio since he was twelve.
