Oshima Brothers Bash – a dynamic unique fusion night of music and dancing! Oshima Brothers, the Japanese-Italian alt-pop band from Maine, will kick off the evening with an upbeat set of smooth harmonies and groovy guitar lines. But that’s just the beginning—after the set, they’ll switch gears and DJ a dance party, spinning a mix of retro classics, reggaeton, and groovy jams. Come ready to party with us!
Maine-based indie duo, Oshima Brothers’ have been creating music together since childhood. The brothers blend songs from the heart with blood harmonies to produce a “roots-based pop sound that is infectious.” (NPR) On stage, Sean and Jamie offer lush vocals, live looping, foot percussion, electric and acoustic guitars, vintage keyboard and bass – often all at once. They want every show to feel like a deep breath, a dance party and a sonic embrace. When not recording or touring they find time to film and produce their own music videos, tie their own shoes and cook elaborate feasts. Maine Public Radio’s Sara Willis describes their songs as “beautiful, those brother harmonies can’t be beat. They are uplifting and, let’s face it, we need uplifting these days.”
Joining Oshima Brothers this year will be yeemz. yeemz (Yi-Mei Templeman) is a cellist, singer-songwriter, and composer based in Santa Monica, California. She blends musical worlds seamlessly, creating music that is intimate yet universal, intricate yet accessible. A lifelong songwriter, yeemz began composing at the piano, and later developed her signature style—singing while playing the cello like a guitar—after she couldn’t bring her ukulele to college. yeemz uses her classical training to breathe new life into the cello, recontextualizing its voice in an indie folk setting where tradition meets quiet rebellion.
Her distinctive approach to the cello, paired with refined composition skills and evocative storytelling, has garnered a growing community of fans. She orchestrates all of her original songs, drawing inspiration from literature, classical music, and the indie-folk artists she grew up listening to.
