Josh Caterer is best known as the lead singer of legendary punk band Smoking Popes. As a solo artist, he refuses to be boxed in, running the gamut from blues and gospel to power-pop. In 2021, Caterer teamed up with Chicago indie label Pravda Records to release a pair of lockdown-inspired solo albums, “The Hideout Sessions” and “The SPACE Sessions” which were hailed by fans and critics alike. The Chicago Reader said, “One of the distinctive characteristics of Caterer’s sound has always been the contrast between his choirboy vocals and the crunch of his band, and the allure of that approach has never been stronger.”

Veterans of the storied Chicago indie music scene, cousins Scott and Odie Schaefer have collaborated in several acclaimed rock bands across multiple decades. Scott sings. Odie strums. And it's always been that way. Drawing on their full-band experiences, these musical co-conspirators have recently distilled their sound into a nimbler duo format. Potent and portable, this arrangement allows for more organic performances defined by up-tempo melodic tunes interwoven with witty in-between-song banter. Raw and immediate, Scott and Odie aim for maximum engagement. If the performers have fun, then the audience has fun…and Scott and Odie ALWAYS have fun! They have recorded for various labels, including Chicago’s longest-running indie Pravda Records (which was awarded “Best Independent Record Label” by the Chicago Reader in 2023, 2024 and 2025). Having supported various artists such as country punk legend Jason Ringenberg (Jason & the Scorchers), Americana progenitor Walter Salas-Humara (the Silos), punk luminary Richard Lloyd (Television), and other noteworthy national faves such as Local H and Firewater among others, Scott and Odie have definitely enjoyed their adventures to date. However, with more recordings and regional shows on the horizon, they feel the fun is really just beginning….
