On April 1 Doomtree's Cecil Otter released a new digital EP, Dear Echo, with 3 new tracks and 3 partner instrumentals.

Otter, whose last solo release was 2008's Rebel Yellow, offered the following explanation for the release:

Here are 3 songs that I wrote a few years ago. The plan was to put them on the full length that I’m working on, but these 3 in particular were written about/for a certain part of my life that has been in the rear view for so long that they didn’t make sense with the more recent songs I’ve been writing.

Track Listing
1. Cross Countries
2. Grime
3. Beauty
4. Cross Countries (instrumental)
5. Grime (instrumental)
6. Beauty (instrumental)
