The band is made up of lead vocalist Oscar Mein who scribes the clever, witty and thoughtful observations on life. And fruit. Guitarist, Henry Francis and his amazing pedal-board is on the noble path to tone mastery making the instrument sound like it was made by unicorns. Rhythm section Max Holmes(bass) and Conor Feehly (drums) provide the backbone, the funk and keep the party going.

For the uninitiated, we invite you to dip your ears and eyes into the chilly southern land of Soaked Oats and their music video for 'Gum-15'.

Bold colours and dancing beats cut nicely through the grizzly cold of the NZ winter, warming the bones with relevant words and pop/rock’n’roll rhythms." - NZ Musician
