Ben Cramer, singer and songwriter for the band Old Sea Brigade, will be performing at The Maintenance Shop at 7 p.m. Sunday.

A laid-back indie artist, Cramer creates music comparable to the likes of Vance Joy and Hozier, but he said he doesn’t want to put any labels on himself.

“I put myself into my own bubble,” Cramer said on his website. “The music doesn’t conform to one style. I’m in Nashville, but this isn’t straight-ahead Americana or country. At the same time, it’s not just indie rock either. I chose to do something that felt like me.”

Old Sea Brigade made his debut in 2016 with his self-titled EP. Consisting of songs “Love Brought Weight,” “Better Days,” “Georgia,” “Sleep in the Park” and “Towns,” his debut reached much critical acclaim. Cramer’s single “Tidal Wave” quickly surpassed two million listens on Spotify with critical acclaim from Clash, Indie Obsessive and other review publications.

Cramer’s success with Old Sea Brigade has taken off rapidly since the band’s first conception just a few years back with his first tour around the United States.

Old Sea Brigade has since come out with three more EPs and a holiday EP since his debut. “Wash Me Away” was his first EP to come out in 2017, followed by the single “We Belong.” Cramer additionally released EP’s “Cover My Own” and “Songs for the Holidays” in 2017.

After a short break in 2018, Old Sea Brigade has recently released his first official album in 2019, “Ode to a Friend.” Consisting of eleven songs, “Ode to a Friend” marks Old Sea Brigade’s longest collection of tracks yet.

“I tried to put myself into my own bubble,” Cramer said on his website. “I chose to do something that felt like me. It’s the best representation of my songwriting and what I grew up loving about music.”

Tickets are available on the Student Union Board’s website as well as in person at the Maintenance Shop at the time of the performance. Tickets are $12 to the public and $10 with student ID.
