Seth Pettersen

Have you ever been attacked by a wild animal? Seth Pettersen has—and he carries the scar like a badge of honor. A seasoned multi-instrumentalist and award-winning songwriter, Seth began performing live at just 14 years old, carving out a path through California’s underground music scene with raw energy and melodic instinct.

Beyond his quietly influential solo work, he’s been a driving force behind beloved bands including <a href="spotify:artist:2OnlBhhsRI0skl0jQSthpJ" data-name="Franklin For Short">Franklin For Short</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:4A8w9gbsLiq8R7BilSknJp" data-name="Massenger">Massenger</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:0seIE68ySOpVMUUAw7tJn6" data-name="Vnlvx">Vnlvx</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:59ImpdLVrhUocTczOKEfb0" data-name="Sweet Reaper">Sweet Reaper</a>, and most recently, <a href="spotify:artist:62HBUb8myzYUAxwKuxe4YY" data-name="Head Cut">Head Cut</a>. His songs have rippled through surf films and skate videos across the globe, forming the soundtrack to movement, rebellion, and sun-bleached freedom.

Now in 2025, Seth continues to create from the shadows—refining a new solo album that promises to be as hauntingly sincere and uncompromising as the scar he wears.
