Over Atlantic was formed in August of 2008 by Alex, who lived in California, and Dan who lived in New Jersey. They came together through an online music site called punkdisasters, Dan sending Alex lyrics and guitar parts, and Alex trying to turn them into songs. This is their months of hard work paid off. In a world where music is made for money and fame, and bands are built off of image and appeal to 14 year old girls, Over Atlantic are trying to create something different.
