The Okes Enter Timbaland’s Global Talent Search
We’ve never been a band that takes ourselves too seriously, but every now and then, a huge opportunity pops up where we just have to throw our hat in the ring — and this is definitely one of those times.
We’re stoked to share that The Okes have officially entered the 2026 Timbaland x Orbiiit Global Talent Search, and we need a quick favour from the absolute best listeners, friends, and supporters on the West Coast.

What’s the Deal with this Competition?
Yes, that Timbaland – the legendary producer behind some of the biggest hit tracks in hip-hop, pop, and R&B history.
Orbiiit teamed up with Timbaland to host a worldwide search for independent artists and bands. The grand prize includes a $100,000 cash prize pool, a masterclass session with Timbaland himself, and a chance to feature on an upcoming collaboration album.
For us, putting our name in the mix isn't about chasing fame—it's about repping our local Vancouver music scene, getting our sound into new ears, and seeing how far four guys making noise on the North Shore can take things.
