Timeline

Peter Katis is an American Grammy Award-winning record producer, audio engineer, mixer, and musician.

Katis is best known for working with alternative and indie rock bands.

He works primarily out of his own residential studio, Tarquin Studios, in Bridgeport, Connecticut.

1966

Peter Katis was born in New York City in April 1966.

He is the eldest son of Dr. Lauma Katis and Dr. James Katis, both psychiatrists.

His brothers are Tom and Tarquin.

Katis attended New Canaan Country School and Greenwich High School, both in Connecticut.

He graduated from the University of Vermont having majored in Visual Arts and minored in English.

He also attended and then taught studio production classes at SUNY Purchase in New York.

Katis lives in Fairfield, Connecticut, with his wife, Ann Risen Katis, and their son, Will.

1980

Peter Katis's music career began in the late 1980s with The Philistines Jr., an experimental pop band composed of Katis (vocals, guitar, keyboards), his brother Tarquin Katis (vocals, bass), and their friend Adam Pierce (drums).

The band's first gig was an opening spot for Phish in front of a sparse crowd on the campus of the University of Vermont.

1989

In 1989 he began taking continuing education classes at SUNY Purchase in studio production, which further developed his recording skills.

Katis then worked as an intern, an assistant, and then as an engineer in various recording studios in New York City.

As his career progressed, Katis began being asked by his friends in other bands—including Mommyheads, Oneida, Guster, and Mercury Rev—to help record their albums.

1991

The Philistines Jr.'s early albums - Greenwich, CT (1991) and The Continuing Struggle of The Philistines Jr. (1993)—received critical acclaim and charted on college radio stations across North America.

The band also received frequent airplay from John Peel on his BBC Radio 1 program.

Upon hearing their first album, Peel telephoned the band "just to say how much he liked the record" and invited them to record a Peel Session in London.

The band completed three Peel Sessions and concurrent UK tours.

1996

Subsequent albums by The Philistines Jr. include The Sinking of the S.S. Danehower (1996), Analog vs. Digital -or- We Don't Get The Respect We Deserve in Today's Scientific Community (2000), If A Band Plays in the Woods...? (2010), If a Lot of Bands Play in the Woods...? (2011), and "Help!" (2019).

Over time, Katis has also participated in a number of musical side projects, including The Zambonis, The Happiest Guys in the World, The Pants, and James Kochalka Superstar.

While recording songs for his own band in an ad-hoc studio set up in his parents' basement, Katis realized he had an affinity for production.

"My favorite part of being a musician was producing a record," said Katis.

1998

By 1998, Katis's demand as a producer, audio engineer, and mixer had grown to the point where he needed a dedicated production space.

He bought a 7,000 square foot Victorian home in Bridgeport, Connecticut and transformed it into Tarquin Studios, a residence and recording studio for musicians.

Katis has since worked with dozens of artists (see Associated Acts and Discography) at Tarquin Studios.
