Royal Oaks with Roosevelt Drive at Oasis Pub
Royal Oaks with Roosevelt Drive at Oasis Pub brings an evening of original Connecticut indie rock to downtown New London on Saturday, July 25, at 9:00 p.m. Featuring Willimantic’s Royal Oaks alongside New London’s Roosevelt Drive, the show highlights two emerging bands delivering a mix of emo, pop, and rock in one of southeastern Connecticut’s premier independent music venues.
Royal Oaks describes themselves as “sad CT pop and rock” and proudly embraces the title of “Connecticut’s silliest emo band.” Their emotionally driven songs blend catchy melodies with indie rock and emo influences, creating energetic live performances that connect with fans of the modern DIY music scene. Joining them is Roosevelt Drive, a New London-based rock and pop band making its Oasis Pub debut. Together, the two bands showcase the creativity and talent found in Connecticut’s growing independent music community.
For more than two decades, Oasis Pub has been one of southeastern Connecticut’s most important venues for original music, hosting hundreds of local, regional, and touring artists while helping shape New London’s vibrant music scene. Alongside an ever-changing craft beer selection and welcoming neighborhood atmosphere, Oasis remains a favorite destination for music fans looking to discover the next great band.
