Having just dropped their newest single "Give Up the Ganja" feat. J Randy as The Pier's "Leak of the Week" and tearing through FL for the Reggae Rise Up Music Festival, New York's Oogee Wawa recently announced another string of upcoming March dates along with the highly anticipated release of their brand new EP "High N Tight" at the end of the month, and EP Release Show Saturday, April 1st at Recipe 7 (275 New York 25A #33, Miller Place, NY 11764)!
2016 was an exciting year for the band, who headed out on their Island Hopper Tour in January, hitting stops in FL and the U.S. Virgin Islands, then conquering a string of epic shows which included opening for reggae legends Steel Pulse, a string of dates with fellow reggae-rockers Ballyhoo!, the Rocks Off Concert Cruise with The Movement, and taking the Main Stage at the Sayville Seafood Festival. The band also launched a Summer Singles Series releasing new tunes "Waiting on the Sunrise" with TreeHouse, "Palm Trees", "Finding Fame" ft. Bumpin Uglies, and "Just Another Day". Now into a brand new year, they've been hard at work in the studio tracking "High N Tight". As M.C. Jesse Lee Roenbeck recently told The Pier "We record everything in house, our guitarist JP Aceto engineers and produces all of our stuff and then we come in and nit pick". On its first single and it's overall message, he continues "'Give Up The Ganja' is a relatable topic in today's age. Too many people are given a hard time for enjoying a little smoke. One of my daughters has Cerebral Palsy and trying to get CBD oil for her seizures in NY is incredibly hard, illegal and expensive, and that is ridiculous! This is by no means an anti-police song, more of a 'Hey most people smoke weed and don't cause any problems' song."Upcoming Shows:
Sat. March 18th @ 1 Oak on Elm w/The Elovators & The Feel Goods , Manchester, NH
Fri. March 24th @ The 8x10 w/Higher Education & Never Ending Fall, Baltimore, MD
Saturday, April 1st @ Recipe 7 (EP RELEASE SHOW!), Miller Place, NY
As Creative Control Magazine recently put it- "To hold a successful party, you need loud, invigorating music that will fulfill the host's one requirement: to keep the party going all night long. To complete this mission, there's no better band than Oogee Wawa".
Get ready, as the band continues to spread their good vibes worldwide and keep that party going, they drop new EP "High N Tight" in just a few short weeks and rock their release show Saturday, April 1st at Recipe 7 in Miller Place, NY!
