Proto-grunge band UDDER has returned after a three-decade hiatus to release a set of songs originally recorded in the ‘90s, both on streaming and vinyl. UDDER began when Sherri Brady Carter and Heather Jones Lotti hung a flyer downtown looking for a guitar player. Rick Stanziale, who knew Lotti from working at The Grill and Carter as the then-girlfriend of Laura Carter of the Bar-B-Q Killers, took up the post. The three began playing shows around town, and eventually recorded three original songs with up-and-coming studio engineer David Barbe. UDDER broke up within a couple of years, but when Stanziale reached out to Barbe 30 years later, he found that the band’s master recordings were still intact. The trio then decided to release those three songs and come together for a reunion show to promote them. Joining UDDER will be rock band Hayride and bootgaze band Viv and the Things.
