Octopus Project met with a local DJ from Q92.5 and convinced him to play their single on air. The single immediately became a local hit and larger radio stations started playing the song. Eventually a record executive heard it and signed the group. Octopus Project’s first album did not do so well, but the second album was a hit, going gold.
Octopus Project finally knew they made it after the band’s first fan club was started in 1982 by Angela Judge. The fan club grew from a few dozen to a few thousand after Pamela Abbey created a website for the band and a national tour gave the band plenty of exposure.
Octopus Project's new release is a refinement of their previous sound. The band is in the beginning of the tour promoting for their most current project. Octopus Project will take a break after this next tour, allowing the band members to recharge.
The group has always had a good time in Washington, D.C. so they make sure to play there every year, even if they are not promoting anything. The group’s latest tour information, from Octopus Project tickets to concert schedule changes to seating charts, are all available on Ticket Specialists.
