Otter Petter

On their new EP Cobwebs, Chicago, IL quartet Otter Petter charms with a beguiling blend of chiming, soaring classic mid-aughts indie rock buoyed by a measured dose of engaging pop anthemics.

To track the new record, the band headed to Transient Sounds Studios and producer / engineer Steven Gillis (Filter, Los Lobos). “Steven really helped the band grow, particularly from a production standpoint” tells Michael. “He encouraged us to try new approaches and parts to help fully realize these songs’ potential. Things like experimenting with alternative tunings, unique drum fills and parts, and vocal arrangements. He was amazing to work with.”

From those sessions Otter Petter is proud to bring you Cobwebs. A concise collection of undeniable earwigs, flecked with bittersweet introspection, ready to bring both joy and companionship. So, lean into the jubilant melodies and the “oohs and ahhs”… because that’s kind of what life is.

“This is near perfect pop music.”
