It is with regret that I announce The Ocean has canceled their appearance at ProgPower next September. The band reached out to me shortly after the festival last month and informed me of the issue. We tried to figure out a way that would allow the band to perform, but it's unclear whether or not that would be possible. Thus, I made the decision to pull the plug now and head into a new direction before tickets for Day 2 go on sale.
Band statement: "With The Ocean’s impending lineup change at the beginning of next year on the horizon and the fact that our work visas for the current lineup expired, we have to regretfully pull out of Prog Power USA 2025. Cancelling shows is an absolute last resort for us and we’re sorry for not being able to perform. We heard only great things about Prog Power and hope to be able to play Prog Power at one point in the future!"
I have already begun working on a replacement and should be able to announce something ahead of our on sale date for Day 2.
