Thee Oh Sees (formerly The Ohsees, OCS, Orange County Sound, Orinoka Crash Suite) began as a way for John Dwyer (of Coachwhips, Pink and Brown, Landed, Yikes, Burmese, The Hospitals, Zeigenbock Kopf, etc.) to release his instrumental, experimental home recordings. However, over the course of several albums, it evolved into a full band.
