Lullabies for Dogs

Chase Petra music has always been about growth: growing up, growing out, growing tired of what others expect of you. On their sophomore album, Lullabies for Dogs, the Long Beach, CA trio once again elevates the existential questions that pepper life’s long, unpredictable journey. 

The follow-up to 2018’s Liminal, Lullabies for Dogs alternates timeless melodicism (the somber “Two Nights In New York” and hypnotic acoustic-based “Icarus”) and tireless energy (“Centrifugal Force” and “Bread And Circus,” which crash with the unpredictability of early Panic! At the Disco) – establishing Allen, drummer Evan Schaid and bassist Brooke Dickson as one of the emo scene’s most adroit acts. 

Out March 7th, 2025 on Wax Bodega. Also available on Bandcamp.
