	Description:		Singer/guitarist Elise Okusami, who records as Oceanator (supervillain or superhero?), came up in the DC punk scene, playing drums, guitar, and bass. Her songs, while rooted in a rockenroll and punk community garden, also play with synthy-pop and even 1950’s sock hop feels. Some songs feature chuggy-aggressive guitar and a voice like a sweaty hug in a mosh pit from a friendly stranger who picks you up after you’ve been knocked down. Oceanator has been riding out the pandemic in Maryland, and joins us from there to nerd out a little about recording, hint at the next record, and play some of her songs.
