Early life
Fetters was born on September 28, 1954 in Toledo, Ohio and grew up in neighboring Sylvania. Fetters met fellow artists Chris Arduser and Bob Nyswonger while attending Sylvania High School. Fetters, Arduser and Nyswonger have been playing together off and on since 1971.
Career
Fetters, Arduser, Nyswonger, and Adrian Belew formed The Bears in 1985 and began touring and recording until 1988. The trio "psychodots" recorded and performed starting in 1990, sometimes as Belew's tour support or backing band members.
The Bears regrouped in 2000 and continued performing until 2007. The psychodots continue to perform in the Cincinnati area.
Fetters has released three solo albums, and his commercial scoring and commissioned work has included clients such as ABC, Disney, Nickelodeon, and PBS, as well as Microsoft, Crest and Kellogg’s.
