Cerulean, from 1991, is the second album by the Ocean Blue, the indie-pop band from Hershey, Pennsylvania, and it's as cool and clear as its title. The original four are all here: David Schelzel singing and playing guitar, Steve Lau on keyboards and saxophone, Bobby Mittan on bass, and Rob Minnig on drums and vocals.
The sound is shimmering, wistful jangle, guitars glinting like light on water, keyboards drifting underneath, Schelzel's voice gentle and slightly lovelorn. "Ballerina Out of Control" was the breakout, reaching No. 3 on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks chart, and the band took the record on the road across North America as the opening act for the Psychedelic Furs.
