CAMPUS REX
OK COOL
With eight songs clocking in at a head-spinning, 17-minute runtime, OK Cool’s third EP "fawn" is at heart a direct line into the minds and creative processes of the band’s Bridget Stiebris and Haley Blomquist. The two friends from college have been cutting their teeth in their local music scene for years, where they’ve established their own label, Take a Hike Records. Their latest EP is a kaleidoscopic stride that showcases the ongoing evolution in their charming union of glistening math rock and fuzzed-out dream pop that the two Chicago shredders have been working on since their inception in 2020. Written and self-produced over the course of two years, and ultimately completed in 2022 with the help of engineers Brad Harvey and John Micensky, "fawn" is a testament to the band’s DIY spirit.
