We’re delighted to be working with Ohtis for the first time!
Ohtis has been the long-running project of Sam Swinson and Adam Pressley, friends since high school in Normal, Illinois. Their debut album Curve of the Earth (Full Time Hobby, 2019) introduced their mix of dark humour, moral tension and back-porch mysticism, earning critical praise and a cult following.
After a run of singles including Shatze (Saddle Creek, 2021) and Without Blemish (Joy of Life International, 2025), Ohtis return with a renewed sense of focus and a deep well of unreleased songs. After 7 years away, Swinson will be returning to the UK this autumn in support of his new material, released this year through Joy of Life International.
This show takes place at Low Four – a recording studio situated on Deansgate Mews in the Great Northern warehouse. This intimate venue features a fully stocked Cloudwater bar.
