"An uncommonly magnetic indie rock quartet...one of this year’s most impressive new acts." - Rolling Stone
“The four close friends have found themselves entering a future so bright and open-ended that their lofty ambition for Swapmeet will only rise.” - The Line of Best Fit ★★★★

Described by Pitchfork as “Stephen Malkmus at his loosest” and by Uncut as “a sunnier Elliott Smith or Sparklehorse,” Octoberman has built a cult following across Canada and abroad. Over the years, they’ve earned placements on shows like Grey’s Anatomy, toured internationally with artists like Julie Doiron and Mount Eerie, and quietly evolved into one of the country’s most quietly enduring folk-rock collectives. Chutes may be their most reflective record yet—but like the best of their catalog, it never stops moving forward.
