Music out of the Caves and into Philly

The Cave Singers are a new trio out of Seattle, and their music is being described as "haunting," as "folk music approached by way of punk rock," and as "sparse, melodic, and simultaneously creepy and alluring." Those last two quotes are from Brian Barr of Seattle Weekly, and we have to agree with him pretty much 100%. We've been listening to their debut full length, Invitation Songs, and we're pretty impressed. Particular favorites of ours include the romantic "Helen," the excellent, foot-stomping "Dancing on Our Graves," and the eerie and slightly menacing "New Monuments." If you think you'd like to try these guys out for yourself, well, you're in luck! They're playing Johnny Brenda's this Friday night with Black Mountain.
